Re: Grizzly Peak, Bear Peak...

Besides this Grizzly Peak and the Bear Peak near Boulder, in Colorado there is a fourteener named Little Bear, and there are five additional Grizzly Peaks above 13,000 ft. (I think it was Scott Patterson who noted that there are more Grizzly Peaks than grizzly bears left in Colorado.) If I want to specialize in plantigrade peaks, I've got some more work to do.



On a related subject: A hiker is a plantigrade, especially one with a heavy pack. A climber, on the other hand, is a digitigrade. What do you call someone who glissades?
