Double Listings in Steepness List

John,
Just noticed on the steepness list there are two peaks taking two spots. They look like the only two cases where a steep peak boarders two states:

Guessing they should only have one steepness ranking?

The duplicate will likely get replaced in the top 1000 with a newly discovered Idaho summit(see below). Havent run the numbers yet but it looks like a top 1000 steepness peak from the map.

Just to follow up. Ran numbers on UN 9100. Avg drop at 100m - 378'. #7 in idaho and #352 on the national list - just ahead of N Six Shooter in Utah.

Digital data says the N summit is higher by a couple feet, and less steep. Puts the elevation at 9086 vs 9081 for the S summit. But digital data is not reliable at that resolution for absolute elevation values. The N summit doesnt make the top 1000 for steepness.

Guidebook says Lincoln and Hales climbed the 8837 peak to the W in 1955 but doesnt mention anything about the 9100 point.

As always - Thanks John.

Happy to see another NM peak made the list. Those volcanic plugs can be a lot of fun. Just wish I still lived there so I could climb it :(
