I believe it is now permitted to limit the overcrowding.

Limits have to be place on hikers there. When I did it several years ago it was downright dangerous as it was so crowded. I was shocked at people’s behavior.. Not so much because of the terrain as for the numerous idiots literally running up and down on the narrow two way stretches where a fall could be fatal. They pushed their way through the crowds on narrow ledges with severe exposure as if there was no danger at all. I’m surprised more people weren’t killed from falls. Of course, I wasn’t as smart as driftwoody and attempted it mid-morning. I’ll know better next time.

It's name could be considered somewhat controversial nowadays. I'm surprised it hasn't had a petition filed to rename it ..

Okay, based on terrain and where Balzaccom hangs out, I googled it. Indian Rock in Yosemite. I didn’t know about that!
And oh carp, that means I’ll have to find another photo.

Yes--although technically it's the Rock Arch on Indian Ridge....

Sorry about taking so long... got distracted by one thing and another. Okay, the lake below should be easy. On what peak are we picnicking?

I'm guessing Mt Davis, just north of Ritter...

I feel like I know that spot, but so many Sierra lakes are like that.
BTW, when on your phone you have to scroll to the bottom of the page and switch to desktop mode in order to get the add image button.

Thank you to Travis for correcting my post, and for Rebecca for revealing the secrets of posting on my phone.
As for the original post, the peak is almost the right color ..
