Name that Mountain
Looking west to Mt. Evans, what is the peak to the north of that group with the U-shaped patch of snow near the summit? I'd like to climb it soon. Thanks for the info!

Re: Name that Mountain
Sorta. There's a label for Genese Mountain but there's a peak that rises above it that isn't labeled, and I'm thinking that's the one.
