In yesterday’s post (click HERE) we talked about Liberty Cap Mountain, which would be just out of the frame to the left of this photograph. Vernal Fall is still being used as an anchor in the bottom left of the photograph, the peak with the reference #1 (top photo), reaching into a cloud is Mount Clark. That tall peak all the way to the right under reference #2 is Mount Starr King
The view was breathtaking and confusing as it was difficult to grasp all the individual mountains one could view at a single glance. Well, actually I don’t think anyone could just glance at the sight. It would be more like a stare! There is probably a book somewhere that includes the history explaining how each mountain received its name. Some are obvious, but others are less so.
