Colorado Mines Peak?

Postby royswkr » Wed Aug 30, 2006 4:23 pm

I couldn't find either this name or a point at 12392 on the CO peak lists

Also I think Forsythe Peak should be 8552

Is there a way to summarize all your peaks on one page (or at least in one list for MG BM and GR) maybe with ranked peaks in L column and unranked in R?

Agree on Forsythe.

Colorado Mines Peak:

It appears on the 12ers list:

It appears only Mount Emmons has an elevation at 12,392.

For some reason the Board of Geographic Names gives a far different value for CM than the map shows:

but of course you used the map elev

Can "View All Member Stats" be updated to include < 11K and also unranked peaks

And I understand that which unranked peaks to include is a judgement call, but I'd like to request "Greater Mt Hood" at 12005

which has a sign at the trailhead that this peak is taller than Mt Hood

Thank you for your help so far, great site!

Now maybe you can help me find Mt Flora

And for another unranked peak to add, Owl lookout tower site is about a mile from the higher summit with > 200' prom and better views:

Unlike Bob & Mike I'm too lazy to climb more Colo peaks right now, this is the only way to add to my list :-)

Flora is a special case. The original Garratt and Martin list has Flora extrapolated as the difference between the marked summit elevation and one contour higher since the point to the north is higher. Tim Worth and I verified this with his level earlier this year:

Thank you, perhaps you should list it as "Flora North" as you did with a similar situation on Twin Sisters
