the montana ones really trip me up, i stared at some for a long time trying to determine if they were colorado or montana.

yours are a little easier, because, there's like, actually snow and ice on your mountains

Kinda, but 1/2 of mine aren't WA

This thread is kinda bumming me out. Don't get me wrong love my home and the life I have here but this thread makes me wish I had more then a handful of weeks a year to explore the high country. I can assure you the Oklahoma high alpine is quite lack luster.

Here is something different - a bit more civilized and root of the word. Been a few years, this wouldve been the last trip I took, back in 2016.

That was was Rainier about 30 min after I ditched my skis because... I was realizing that while the skiing wouldn't be "hard" it was also ZERO mistake territory, and I'm not an mistake proof skier.

IMO that's what a 14-er should look like!

don't get me wrong though, i'm jealous that the PNW mountains more readily fall into the category of "mountaineering"

us rocky mountains states really just got stuck with high risk scrambling and long steep slogs unless you choose the class 5 route

Peak in the back is popular.

Anyone else notice that outside of the Flattops it's pretty damn tough to figure out what state these were taken in?
