Proboscis at sunrise from LFT summit.
Summit in right foreground is Phenocryst.
Sunlit summit below left skyline is Middle Cathedral Peak.
I didn't notice when I took this photo, but I believe you
can see "What Notch?" in this photo. "What Notch?" is the elusive pass
which connects the main Cirque to the drainage below the SE face of the
Proboscis. Locate the triangular snow patch just below the exact
center point of this photograph. I believe this is "What Notch?".

The prominent dihedral just right of center is route 21 in
