A good look at the steep and crumbly east face of WCP-4 from the east ridge. The true summit is visible off to the right.

Voted 10/10 | What kind of freakin' rock is that, on the
east face of WCP-4???
Why would it be so crumbly? Is it volcanic?
It has some mighty fine texture - PLEASE keep
up your GREAT work on these photographs.

Hasn't voted | Thanks for the comments Larry. This type of rock isn’t uncommon in the White Clouds, especially in the northern part of the range. I'm far from a geologist, but from what I understand it’s a type of metamorphic limestone that is just a bit crystallized (kinda quartz like in places). Makes for very pretty sunsets since the rock is so reflective. | | Posted Oct 21, 2008 12:17 am |
