This picture is in the 1st and 3rd editions of 100 Hikes in the Glacier Peak Region, and is labeled as "Estes Butte".

Estes Butte is up the Chiwawa River. Having been over Estes Butte long ago and having seen it last month from Basalt Peak and Basalt Ridge, I'm skeptical that this is a picture of Estes Butte or that it is a picture taken from Estes Butte. Anyone know what/where this picture is?

Here is looking S from Carne, toward the lookout site (edit: at first I thought that might have been it, but no, looks different.)

That is the north face of Old Gib mountain, probably taken from near Carne and mistaken for Estes Butte.

Yeah, I've caught several inaccurately labeled pictures in hiking guides over the years. My 1993 edition of 100 Hikes in Alpine Lakes calls a little cliff on the eastern side of Lake Caroline--Cashmere Mtn. Not even remotely close! lol.gif
