If you are looking northwest

Voted 10/10

Makes sense. I suppose the Iceberg is behind the darkened ridge to the left?

	Voted 10/10	I rumaged on the net after finding the Dardanelles Cone topozone and reckon that Bob Burd is probably a good source on this one. I did find a picture that shows Dardanelles Butte up close-looks consistent with your pix.

Hasn't voted	Diggler, these are known as the "Three Chimneys". They are accessable from Eagle Meadows but its quite a hike.
