Looking east-southeast from the summit of Peak #4: La Coulotte Peak (Peak #3 left) is connect to Peak #4 by the ridge running down the left, and connected to Peak #2 (center) and the Peak #1 (slightly right of center) by high ridges of the Great Divide.
The two peaks on the ridge west of La Coulotte Peak. Peak #5 (right), Peak #4 (left center), with La Coulotte Peak (Peak #3) hidden behnd Peak #4. And a cute little tarn at the base of Peak #4 in the basin to the north of the ridge

The path from La Coulotte Ridge down to West Castle Valley Trail.
The two peaks on the ridge west of La Coulotte Peak. Peak #5 (right), Peak #4 (left center), with La Coulotte Peak (Peak #3) hidden behnd Peak #4. And a cute little tarn at the base of Peak #4 in the basin to the north of the ridge
On the west side of Peak #5, looking southeast is Sunkist Ridge (left) and peaks into the distance. If going SOBO (heading east) do not veer off onto Sunkist Ridge, continue straight/east on the ridge towards Peak #4 and La Coulotte Peak.
Heading up Peak #5 from the west (SOBO). Sunkist Ridge veers off to the right - do not turn onto it, continue stratight to Peak #4 and La Coulotte Peak (Peak #3) both hidden behind Peak #5 here.
Just below the summit on the west side of Peak #5, a gorgeous valley stretches to the west-southwest, complete with snowy peaks into the distance forever. A brief sun shower hangs a rainbow over the valley if you look closely just upper left of center.
Ridges and mountains to the west with Peak #5's west ridge in the foreground. Seen looking west from just below the summit on the west side of Peak #5, two peaks west of La Coulotte Peak (Peak #3).
On Peak #4 summit looking southwest: Peak #5 is the nearby brown faced peak behind red summit of Peak #4 with ridge connecting the two peaks winding to lower left. The saddle at far right is where the trail attains the ridge and follows it to Peak #5.
Looking east-southeast from the summit of Peak #4: La Coulotte Peak (Peak #3 left) is connect to Peak #4 by the ridge running down the left, and connected to Peak #2 (center) and the Peak #1 (slightly right of center) by high ridges of the Great Divide.
