New WY 13er: 13180

Postby John Kirk » Thu May 14, 2009 11:29 pm

Stumbled across this, looking at the quad super-zoomed, and there is a 13160+ contour I didn't see before with the county line overlaying it:

35 ranked 13ers for WY now.

This also means the Gannett Peak quad ties with Springdale East in Utah for the quad with the most ranked peaks at 42.
This also means people who have done Fisher Mountain, CO lost one in their count of US 1000 contiguous peaks. Sorry Teresa and Kirk :wiz:

At least the cutoff is not a tiebreaker (for now), it ends at 12,866.

My first response was to groan. My 2nd was to be quite thankful that you found this before I scheduled a trip for Bastion and Flagstone. Nice work.

Interesting that 13180 shows up on Roach's list, yet the count is still at 34. Looks like "Pinnacle Ridge" is the omission.

John - how did you get the class 3 rating on 13180? Is this peak in the Kelsey guide?

Completing the WY 13ers will be quite an accomplishment, I'm surprised it hasn't been done by any of the expert climbers in the Jackson area. I've only done 2(Cloud and Francs), but both were fine hikes.

Yes it is in the Kelsey guide, which gave me the impetus to look it over again. Gerry's list was also missing the ranked peak south of Doublet when I made a Continental Divide Peaks list in 2005.

Looks like you found a 43rd peak on the Springdale quad at some point. Does it remain the quad with the most peaks?

Nice, thanks!

How does that list shake out w/ different prominence thresholds (P500? P1K?).

Very cool, thanks again! Not surprising that Glacier fairs well at those higher thresholds.
