Sunrise in late June. Clarks Fork of the Yellowstone River. View toward the west. Pilot Peak, the classic glacier carved horn peak, is 11,708 feet elevation and was first climbed in 1928. Prior to the turn of the century. Index Peak was known as Dog Turd Peak — a name bestowed by the local miners. The U.S. Geological Survey refused to use that name and changed it when the first maps of the area were published.
