This picturesque peak is unnamed as it’s merely a ridge up to Mt. Eddy which is over 1,000 feet higher.

The one pictured above is a bit northwest, and quite a bit smaller–especially in summer, of Middle Deadfall Lake. Signs near here say “Toad Lake”, but Toad Lake is actually about four miles from here.
