Album caption and index card: View of some of the highest and most conspicuous of the singular sandstone peaks which surround the centerof the range. Chief among them is Castle Peak, from the weird towers, by which its central pyramid is flanked on either side. It is a bright, rich red, distinctly banded by its stratification, and rising up in sharp blade-like crests to the summit. Its elevation is 14,106 feet. This side of Castle Peak there are two lesser pyramids, very characteristic of the system. Away in extreme distance the broad summit of Grizzly and the sharp crest of La Plata are distinctly seen.
