P is for peaks. We've perused a plethora of them on maps, observed their precise positions, studied all in perceptible proximity, and ascended a plurality. Utah is a land of plentiful peaks, so possibilities are prolific.
The premier Utah mountain is Kings Peak, the highest at 13,528 ft/4100m. This photo was taken from the north, on Henry's Fork trail.
The above photo presents Mt. Timpanogas, as seen from Currant Creek Peak, July, 2009.
Here is a profile of peaks as seen from Tabby Mountain, November 2, 2009.
And this pretty puppy picture outlines the procession of the pearls of the Uinta Range. (Taken from Big Ridge, July, 2009.)
Herein, I proudly present and publish this primary post on Utah peaks.

I'm no longer in a condition to walk to the top, but I would dearly have loved to walk around among them.
ReplyDeleteWoah, there is a Currant Creek Peak? Awesome. Do people get confused as to weather it should be called Curnt Crik Peak or Fruitlnd Peak?
ReplyDeleteBreathtaking scenery...the snow on the mtns is a nice contrast...I would love to ride there...your Ps are plentiful...
ReplyDeleteTotally gorgeous peaks. You have captured them so beautifully.
ReplyDeleteThese majestic peaks are lovely to behold but deadly to be scaled. I think I would just be satisfied admiring them from a distance.
ReplyDeleteOh why is my country so flat??? I love mountains!
ReplyDeleteYou sure have a lot of mountains in Utah. Grace and I just drove through the Sierra from Yosemite to Mono Lake. The scenery was fantastic. We were in a SUV, on horse back would be my fantasy.
ReplyDeleteLoved these photos, especially when I enlarged then to see the names of each peak! I'd love to come to Utah some day and experience your mountain peaks in person!
ReplyDeleteFantastic shots as always, Janie! So much beauty and you are able to capture it perfectly!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the rest of your week! And give Daisy a hug from Sam and Mojo and me!

You are always so good at using the letter- well done!
ReplyDeleteI'm also glad you posted these because I can see most of those peaks from my house but didn't know all of the names!
An enticing mountain post, the naming was a nice touch. What beautiful flowers in the second photo.
ReplyDeletepalpably perfect pictographic presentation
ReplyDeleteFabulous "P" post, Diane.. Don't think I've ever seen that many "P" words in a single paragraph... ha ha
ReplyDeleteLove the PEAKS.... One of my joys is to climb to the top of a mountain and just sit there and meditate. Makes me feel closer to God.
Great post. Thanks!
Hugs,
Betsy
Your photos are just astoundingly beautiful!!! I love all your p's...especially that adorable Pup!
ReplyDeleteAwesome, awesome place!!! Looks so refreshing! :)
ReplyDeleteI am betting you can guess which one is my favorite, Janie. I really do like the first three pictures of peaks but the last one of *PP Puppy is Pure perfection.
ReplyDelete*PP (pretty perfect)
Breathtaking as always Janie! I need to go see if I have something for the letter P since I'm doing nablopomo I'll be back to the memes for this month :-)
ReplyDeleteDaisy's pads must be positiviley pulvarized pacing over your plethora of peaks, poor puppy :)
ReplyDeletehonestly--that was amazing to see so many of Utah's Peaks in one Post. And to think you've been to them all.
I lovwe the one of Daisy! It is Daisy isn't it?
ReplyDeleteI'm positively pleased as punch with the plentiful peaks you published in this post.
ReplyDeleteWonderful post! You live in such breathtakingly beautiful country. Those wildflowers are wonderful. Love the picture of Daisy drinking in the scents on the wind too.
ReplyDeleteI love these: You've got to assemble them into a coffee table book. The air looks so refreshing up there. What a day it must have been!
ReplyDeleteYou can make a Profile of your own lexiconic database now Janie. Most Prolific P's in just one Post. :)
ReplyDeleteLove those mountain views and their statistical measures. :)
Hooray to Janie!

ReplyDeleteWow, Janie, you don't need to go on a vacation with gorgeous scenery like this so nearby. I did see just a few smaller peaks on our brief drive through Utah this past August. Lovely area!

ReplyDeleteI like the dark blue sky and the clouds behind the mountains in the first one. The flowers in the forground are gorgeous too.
I climbed a mountain in UTAH in 1994. Beautiful.

ReplyDeleteGood job of using 'P'. I visited Utah's neighbors, Wyoming and Montana, in the spring and it certainly is a beautiful area of the country.
ReplyDeleteI flew over Mt Nebo! Your part of the world is beautiful from the air. Hope to see it someday on the ground.
