Aw yes, Pumpelly Pillar. You can see it from various trails in this area. If you hike Dawson Pass you go to the right of it and eventually get almost as high as it is as you head west toward Dawson Pass.
Pumpelly Pillar 7,625 feet is located in the Lewis Range, the peak is likely named after Raphael Pumpelly, who lead the Northern Transcontinental Railway Survey party that crossed Pitamakan Pass in 1883.
