Mt. Lindsey

Alternate name, per Blaurock & Ormes (and I read it somewhere else, too) is "Old Baldy". Now, I know we have enough friggin' "Bald" peaks, but it's a good historical alternate.

If I remember what I've read correctly, "Old Baldy" was the accepted name for a long time, but was jettisoned sometime in the 50s, both because there were too many others, and to honor Mr. Lindsey.
