Black Kaweah rises 1998 feet above Lake 11682', in 1840 ft. horizontally.
BK is the square topped black peak left of center.
The closer western shoulder of BK, peak 13320'+ is at the panorama's center. We heard a number of rockfalls from this ridge while we were there. We also heard thunder too close for comfort. We will exit right, down into Nine Lakes Basin.
Pyra-Queen Col 12,840' providing access to Kaweah Basin is on the left, at the top of the chute above the W shaped snow patch, between Pyramidal Pinnacle 13,600'+, and Kaweah Queen 13,382' at far left.
