John,
Lisa Foster's RMNP book lists the unranked point 12,442 to the Northwest of Bowen Mtn as Never Summer Peak.

While we're on the subject of peaks named in Fosters book, I see that "Little No Name" (http://www.listsofjohn.com/PeakStats/Climbers.php?Id=112576) is listed but not "Middle No Name". Is this due to there being no closed contour on the maps to work from or was it missed?

It would seem to make more sense that the 12442' peak in the Never Summer Wilderness (& on CD) is called "Never Summer Peak", and the 12438 pt in RMNP (not on CD and not in the Wldn) is called something else.
No need for two "Never Summer Peak" (s).
