Okay,...

Noondueler. You were right about this mountain being peak 12,689 and I was wrong to call it point 12,916'. The problem came from the fact that I was using an old 15 minute map that didn't show any other high points than 12,916. I also checked the R.J.Secor guide to the Sierras and he had nothing listed as Point 12,689, but he has peak 12,916 as one. After checking more sources and a better topo, I know better now. Anyway, I was wrong about this peak, and you get 10X10 for your pic.

Re: Okay,...

Thanks Marc! I appreciate that graceful response.
Just because I was 'right' doesn't ulimately mean anything.
A person once approached my spiritual teacher about an issue he was well versed in and went on at length to prove his point. After he was done my teacher just smiled, looked at him and said: "You may be right but I'm happy"
Have a great day man and thanks for the vote!
