Couple more very minor WY corrections:

Chads Mountain->Chaos Mountain
11100(Five Pockets Quad) -> "Catherdral Spire"

Got a look at the spire while in the area for Ramshorn Peak a few weeks back; very impressive. See http://www.thomasturiano.com/phpbb/view ... p?f=5&t=89

couple more...

7770
S=7470
P=300
Line Parent: Knight Ridge
http://www.mytopo.com/maps.cfm?mtlat=41 ... ype=Mytopo


7650
S=7350
P=300
Line Parent=7830
http://www.mytopo.com/maps.cfm?mtlat=41 ... ype=Mytopo

Map suggests road cut at I80 for saddle of 7650 - saddle looks natural, highway may have been built up a little if anything.

The map for that saddle does inspire skepticism based on the straight lines on the south side - guess they didn't want the natural slope littering the road with dirt/rock?

In the field it doesn't look much like what the map shows on that S side - not very steep.

One other thing, 7650 is the line parent/prox parent of The Hogsback South.
