Simple question, what's the approximate elevation of the Broadway ledges on Long's Peak where they connect to Lamb's Slide on their southern end?

Looking at my topo map of Long's Peak (National Geographic Trails Illustrated #301) it appears to be between 12,400' and 12,600'.

Sweet, thank you. I had that topo at one point, just can't seem to find it.

My recollection is that Broadway is at about 13,000 ft. I don't recall how I came to that conclusion, but looking at this map the elevation at the base of the lower east face is about 12,400 and the top of the Diamond is about 14,000. So, 13,000 sounds reasonable.

Climbed The Notch to upper Kiener's yesterday, and lo and behold you were spot on, it's a little over 12,900
