Talk:Capitan Mountains

Untitled

I found Padilla Peak which seems to be the only labeled feature that fits the description. The locals have a peak that they name Capitan Mountain, but I am not sure which peak it is.

When I entered it in the prescribed format, it said the page does not exist, so I will leave the formatting to someone else. "{{coord|33.61056|-105.41333}}"

I changed the sentence which stated that the Capitan Mountains are the only east-to-west mountain range in North America to that of New Mexico. While east-to-west mountain ranges in North America are rare, there are others that exist, such as the Uinta Mountains of Utah, the Ouachita Mountains of the Central U.S., and the Great Smoky Mountains of Tennessee and North Carolina.

I don't think my picture is a great one, but there is no other picture of the Capitans, if someone has a better one that's great otherwise I think the one I put up should stay.

Also, locals in Capitan like to say that there are no mountains between the Capitans and the North Pole!

I don't think it's worth putting in, personally. I'd like to hear other peoples' opinions, if anyone else is watching this page. Also, if it does get put back in, please take out the totally irrelevant "Infobox writer" wrapper and just include the picture. -- Spireguy (talk) 02:26, 7 September 2009 (UTC)

I put the photo back in as a placeholder until someone submits a better one. Corsair1944 (talk) 16:27, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
