Good mountain page. I would suggest that you add a link or two to a website that would give a current forecast for the area (www.weather.com, www.crh.noaa.gov, etc.) under the “mountain conditions” heading. If you don’t yet know how to make a live link check out this thread: How do you make a live link?
You also need to enter the lat. and long. coordinates for the mountain, this way the topozone feature will work (among other reasons). I looked them up for you: Mount Rose, Washington: 47.5056°N, 123.2881°W.
You submitted some great photos of the surrounding mountains -- the page just needs a good picture of Mount Rose itself (unless I missed it). That's all it will take for me to change this rating to 4 stars.
Your text is brief but I think it covers all the essentials. What a beautiful area! Must hike there some day.
Please add coordinates for Topozone.

I like it when obscure WA mountains are put up. This one fits into that category, in my opinion. Just today (6/14/04) I climbed a really obscure peak in the Gold Bar Quad called "Gambol Knob" (Pk 2740). Lo and behold, I'm climbing up its SE Ridge and I see fresh boot prints. Then, at the summit I see a film cannister register with a name and a date--6/13/04. That's YESTERDAY!! Unbelievable.
Note: Mt. Rose is not east of Ellinor but SW (see here choosing 1:100,000 for the scale). Also, you've got the lat./long. coordinates transposed. It should be 47.5058N and -123.2893W (you have to put the negative sign in there for Western Hemisphere coordinates).
