The Pequod-Forecastle Col

As noted, guides Tom and Robson enjoy taking us to interesting places. Here Robson has just reached a seldom visited col via a steep skin line (Pequod Peak is just to the right) while the rest of us follow along the tricky rising traverse. This spot provided great views of Moby Dick's east ridge, and also the Houston Pass area (the photo of the Vere Gap was taken from here).
