I once tried to trek up Matterhorn Peak in the eastern sierra but it was a rainy day and we felt we had to give up the plan. As a result I permanently have an association of sort of a foggy confused state of affairs staring up at the mountain that I can't even see. Apt perhaps

Huh, I had no idea there was a 'Matterhorn peak' in California. I'd only heard of 'the Matterhorn' in the Alps.
