Thanks for your vote MG. That was my first visit to the Copper Basin but certainly not my last, it is a very special place with endless climbing possibilities.
Thanks for the vote Gangolf. I was hesitant about putting the route photo as the signature photo as well but one can see from Dow's comment that tastes vary in this situation. I'll leave it until I return to the basin to get better photos, for some reason a lot of them I took came out terrible this time.
Nice work Sean. Nice hiking peak and, as you say, a good spot to orientate yourself among the surrounding ranges. Nice to see some photos of Idaho. Which hill do they grow all the potatoes on? (Sorry, couldn't resist)
Yes, I do get the potatoes joke quite a bit from folks. Truth is, the majority of Idaho is pure wilderness and only a small portion of the state, they call it the fertile crescent, produces potatoes.
Although it may only span only 2-3 counties, it remains the greatest producer of taters in the US....they even have a museum.
Too many irons in the fire for me to have the time to vote on all of your stellar pages. But be assured your efforts are not unnoticed by the membership or the SP staff. Thanks for all of your excellent contributions. Keep it up. You make Idaho shine on SP!
I greatly appreciate your kind words and I can't tell you I much I enjoy SP. I love Idaho's mountains but getting to see mountains from every corner of the world from wonderful contributors make this site exceptional.
I agree with Aaron, Sean; you are doing an exceptional job of introducing the SP community to the Idaho mountains! Keep it up!
(As you get them I'd like to see more photos from Glide Mtn, and the area. And just a thought on a way to deal with the route photo: post the photo twice, once with the route, once without.)
Thank you for the compliments and vote Vernon. I enjoy your Montana pages as well, they're certainly unique to most other pages on the site.
I hope to return to the Copper Basin and take some better photos of Glide Mountain before the snow flies but that may not leave me much time as its mid-September and....well...its Idaho.

Untitled CommentI'll be the first one to vote. Good page on this seldom climbed peak. I have never been to the Copper Basin area of the Pioneers.

Untitled CommentGood Page. I was going to compliment you on the route photo at the top of the page, difference of opinion I guess.
