Re: It could be, but.......

I knew that there is one somewhere. My map shows very few
names, and this wall looks so....
Will need to do some editing. Thank you for pointing this up. Do you by any chance know a name of this peak?

Re: It could be, but.......

Little El Capitan is just north of Wind River Peak. The peak in your photo is unnamed, as far as I know. I think this Photo is of the same peak. Am I correct?

Yes, it's the same peak.
In my opinion it's the Coon lake in the foreground. I was passing by and then found a steep way down to the Sandy creek from Coon lake.
