Castle Peak

Photo of me standing at the edge of a small pond near Windy Saddle Pass with Castle Peak's North face behind me. The Big Gully Route can be seen on the left-hand side of the peak. I'd wanted to take a photo from here ever since I saw this Mark Lisk photo a few years ago.

Great Vista

That photo would be a truly great one during early morning light or late evening light. Great vista location.

Re: Great Vista

Agreed. We were there just before noon with the sun directly overhead, so not ideal lighting. It was an excellent spot to break for lunch though.

Very Nice

I really like this picture. Although Castle Peak (and yourself) was the focus point obviously, I really like the view of Serrate Ridge in this shot. The angle at which it was taken really seems to stretch it out. Very nice!

Re: Very Nice

Thanks. Was the view of Serrate Ridge from Lonesome Lake Peak a good one, or did Pk 10857’ kill the perspective?

Re: Very Nice

Both Castle Peak and Serrate Ridge could bee seen from the summit of LLP, but I wouldn't say it's the best view of the two. Check it out here.
