I Wonder

What peaks could these be? I bet Klenke would know.

Re: I Wonder

I'll have to look into it within the next few days. I've been able to figure out quite a few peaks in the area using google earth.

I could be wrong, but...

I am not certain which peaks are these.
Are you certain this is not a view to the NE, towards Rock Mountain, Mount Howard, Mount Mastiff, and other parts of Nason Ridge? If truly looking north, the only peak I recall being so pointed is Labyrinth Mountain, but I do not recall any surrounding peaks look like those in this photo. To the far northwest might be peaks such as Skykomish Peak or Indian Head. Or is this photo zoomed-in, of peaks far away to the north... such as Whittier/Jonathan/David or Luahna/Clark?

One thing worth noting is that Glacier Peak is essentially "due north" of Big Chief Mountain, yet is not shown in this photo, perhaps giving a clue that this photo might not be pointing exactly north. Another thing worth noting is that the peaks in the photo background tower above everything, so a lot can be ruled-out by that assertion. I look for the expertise of other peakbaggers, on this one.

Re: I could be wrong, but...

Good guesses, but I can rule out Rock, Howard, and Mastiff for sure.
