As long as we're playing "Name That Peak", anybody know/ever skied this one (E of Teanaway Peak)?  The ski line in the pic (taken from Stu) appears to go all the way to Ingalls Creek.

Another shot of it. Mission Peak in the far background.

3 Brothers?  I haven't skied it yet because WMC hasn't given me a ride in yet and, otherwise, it's just too far to go.

Sweet. Thanks.

So boot, you've skied that line just E of the summit down the N face? Looks (subjective, i know) steep and pretty fun.

I'm regretting just now getting into ski touring after living in ellensburg for so long. Shame on me.

That east facing slope just north of the aforementioned pk looks quite fun as well. Possibly a good link up?

Another good link up would be skiing South Ingalls pk then skiing that amazing SE bowl off of Fortuane pk. Anyone interested? I have 8 days off every other week.................

That is point 6779, which is Teanaway Peak. . . .

The locals and Backcourters call it Gene's Peak, for Gene Prater. Bill's Peak, named for Gene's brother, is the peak to the E (I can't read the elev on Marcus's map). We did a fun day tour starting up Eldorado Creek from the road, over to Iron, down to upper Beverly Creek, over Gene/Bill pass down to upper Turnpike Creek, then up to the peak SE of Long's Pass then down to Esmeralda TH. Lots of variations are possible.
