Nice pic! But it's spelled Bonney, I think--for Orrin H. Bonney.

Re: Small correction

You are 100% correct. My brain is still low on oxygen a week after our trip. We have a new saying now - "it's not as hard as Bonney".

Re: Small correction

Wow, I've always thought his "Guide to the Wyoming Mountains and Wilderness Areas" was kind of like a precursor of SP, branching out into all the ranges, no matter how obscure and forgotten--he loved them all! There was a move to give the name "Bonney Peak" to the peak just east of Bonney Pass--did that ever take, or has it remained the umpteenth Dinwoody Peak in that area?
