Camiaca Peak
It's the one in the background. The closer peak is actually just a ridge that you will pass by when ascending Virginia Pass.
One of the shoulders of Camiaca Peak
The actual peak is above that cliff band and isn't visible from this vantage point. Virginia Pass is to the right of the picture almost off the edge.
