Piscator Peak, Fish Creek Region, Silver Pass

I think this is a tough one but, maybe someone here on SP knows this peak. In 1919, Francis Farquhar noted "a particularly beautiful peak that towers above the head of the canyon like another Matterhorn" in the Upper Fish Creek region, a mile above what is now the John Muir Trail. Farquhar proposed the name of Piscator Peak.
Galen Rowel and partners put up couple of routes on this in 1989 and said the peak is P 11,280+ a mile east of the John Muir trail just north of Silver Pass.
Pen and I have been searching for the peak for couple of weeks now with no success.
Anybody out there knows the location on the map? Much appreciated.
