L,
That's Beluga point, if you were to swivel the cameara to the right, you'd see the point. From the top of the climb, if you look East up Turnagain arm you'll see Windy Corner, which is the point at the lower right of this pic.
Looking across the arm towards the town of Hope.
For those times where I just have to get out of the office for a mid-day meditation of spring time sunbathing (when the sun has warmed up the rocks enough) it just can't be beat. I took the pics a couple years back, when there were wildfires in Russia which accounts for the hazy air.
Though I have taken to hiking around flat-top lately during lunch, sad to say I've been here almost 13 years before hiking in that area and I didn't realize how amazing the views are.

suze -
Fishhook is cool. Has its highlights....pitches 1 (5.9 cracks) and 5 (easy but nice and exposed) were righteous! We bivied over the Russell-Whitney col rather than bivy at Iceberg (various ideal reasons: close to the route in the morning, less annoying people pooping nearby, THE VIEW!!). Gotta go back and do Mithral Dihedral.

After a particularly hot and thirsty ascent of the Cap'n. I left the valley the next day and didn't come back for 3 years.

I wish I had been born rich, instead of so damned good looking.

I dunno, but I think I look a bit like that handsome Dingus character in this pic.

Sometimes I wonder how far I could have gone in life if I had been born smart.....instead of so damned good looking.
I'm the one on the right.
