Anderson. From the direction of the Fauntleroy Ferry dock, Mt. Olympus is hidden directly behind Anderson (Olympus is higher, but not enough to clear the nearer ridge).

You can purchase it at Metsker’s Maps close to the market. That’s where I bought mine. Cheers!

Anderson, an interior peak, rarely emerges from the silhouette of the Olympic range. But when the sun hits her just right, one appreciates the depth of the range! I think that’s the “mystery peak” that @JayDee mentions.

My house is at 200′ elevation and if the Brothers is shadowed, this mountain is visible. Is it Mount Olympus? Thanks for your help.

Thank you! We used to have a beautiful photo poster with all the peaks identified … took it down to paint a room, haven’t found it since, and I couldn’t find a comparable map online after a few minutes of searching – TR
