According to many definitions, Ruby Pyramid is a sub-peak of Ruby Dome, since the prominence is low (less than 500 feet) and it is very close to Ruby Dome (less than a half mile).
Good point, but I still think it deserves it's own page, at least for recognition. People may wonder atop Ruby Dome if the next door neighbor might not be higher.
I agree. It may not be a "major peak", but with 355' prominence it is considered to be a separate peak by most standards used in the lower 48 states and appears on most modern peak list.

It definitely deserves its own page.
