Cirque Tower, Washington

I had never heard of Cirque Tower before I saw it on Peakbagger.com. However, there it is, the black tower just left of center in this photo taken from the Sulphide Glacier on Shuksan. The northern Pickets are in the distance on the right, with Jack at the far right (2010-07-19). Photo by Zak Griffith. Click here for larger-size photo.
