So today my Dad and I went to Grouse to check out the Eye of the Wind. Despite the fact it was so hazy, the views were still gorgeous! The only thing that bothered me was that I couldn't identify most of the mountains and peaks we were looking at. I knew Crown Mountain and the Camel...but that was about it. I'm young and haven't done my exploring, so hopefully some CTers can teach me some geography! I'll post the pictures I took. If anyone can identify what is where, I'd absolutely appreciate it!

Sorry, I know it's a lot, but I'd love to learn the names of what all is there

You don't have Google Earth?

All your answers are there. Hint: Find out how to move your observation point, set it on Grouse, then it's easy to locate what you saw.

From right, you have Seymour's pump, 2nd and 3rd peaks, then Runner peak. Elsay is obscured by the trees.

Dam mtn and Thunderbird ridge in front. Crown peeking up mid-photo. Goat to the right.

From left: Dam, Crown, Goat again. In the right background Cathedral and Burwell.

As above, but with better view of Cathedral, Burwell, Coliseum, and on the right the Needles.

Fromme. That might be the top of Lynn peak to the left, with Seymour in the distance on the left.

It never occured to me to use it. Looks like I'll be downloading it.
