40_85 Aug. 13, 1923. -[cont. from p. 73] and highly distinctive mountain masses with two great rock blocks topping them. Far south to the right is the Merced group of peaks - cathedral Peak to the left and Unicorn to the right, further east are high mountain peaks which I cannot name, one in particular standing very high with horizontal summit and tall pinnacles _ on its crest so that it is remarkably comb-like. To the east still is a very prominent somewhat conical and acutely-summited peak which is fairly isolated and distinctive. We go on past Stanislaus Mdw. to a set of 2 or 3 lakelets on the mountain side just above Pacific Valley (to the west). From this point we can look down 500 feet into Pacific Valley. It is a narrow mountain valley running north and south with a Yosemite-like floor. It drains into the Mokelumne River (main stream), which we see a little north but still _ slender but rectangular - with parallel sides. |
