Stump Peak el 8603' anchors the southeastern end of the Caribou Range. In 1858 the federally funded Lander Emigrant Road passed near here. Today there are no roads, nor even trails, on this mountain. View N to Stump Peak and its slumping soils, 10/4/01.
From the summit of Tincup Mountain el 8200'+ the view is SE to Star Valley and Salt River Range (I affectionately call the Salts 'the Lemhi Range of Wyoming'). Coming up the draw of Tincup Creek is Idaho Highway 34, which permits four season access to this part of Caribou Range. Photo 4/18/99.
