There's an app for that... Peak Finder. Costs like $5 but 1000% worth it.

Another shot from a bit later. Does this link work?

Yes! Great shot! What camera are you using? Are you a professional?
Nixx_Mazda OP t1_j4og7lh wrote
Thanks. I use a Canon RP.
I mostly just take pictures for myself. I tried to 'go pro' awhile ago, but I'm not that good at sales or marketing. About 90% of being a successful photographer is being good at sales and marketing...

I think it's Davis Peak or Pyramid Peak.

Pyramid for sure. Davis is on the other side of the road. This looks like the view roughly South from Diablo Lake. I sat and waited for my wife and kids at that dock this summer…..

Pyramid Peak. Here’s my version, taken a few years ago from the same place: https://glencampbell.photography/landscape/morning-sentinel

Did you drive from the east side of hwy 20?
Nixx_Mazda OP t1_j4lx6ry wrote
No, Seattle area. Road is closed at Ross Dam trailhead, a couple miles past the Diablo Lake overlook.

Which direction are you looking? (I won't know anyway, but I'm curious!)
Nixx_Mazda OP t1_j4ogdet wrote
South.
I was having a brainfart trying to identify it. Looking at the map I figured it out, it's Pyramid Peak.

Kinda spooky looking downstream from the edge of the railing from the dam, eh?

By the way, the smaller square thing in the background is called “Paul Bunyan’s Stump”

Beautiful shots. Are you on Instagram?
Nixx_Mazda OP t1_j4q8byh wrote
Thanks.
No Instagram. I'm old.

How were the roads?
Nixx_Mazda OP t1_j4q8fmj wrote
Totally clear.
Kind of surprisingly clear. Did we have some pineapple express rain?

If you know the approximate time and location of the photo, and you have a helpful celestial reference like the moon in your photo, you can use this website, (which is amazing for many other reasons) to determine the direction of the photo.
With that and the original location, you should be able to determine the peak.

The link does work and both are awesome photos!

My guess would be Mt. Shuksan?
Nixx_Mazda OP t1_j4lh58y wrote
1: Thanks.
2: I'd say for sure it's not that. I think it might be Pinnacle Peak, but it's kind of a common name so searches come up with a few different peaks.
Edit: Pyramid and Pinnacle Peaks.

Oh yup I think you’re right.

I think that’s Paul bunions stump looming behind

Tall pointy = Pyramid Peak.
