Mt. Darwin on the Sierra Crest from the summit of Mt. Solomons.  Mt. Darwin stands at the head of Darwin Canyon, about 1.66 miles south of Lamarck Col.  The ridge in the foreground is the southeast ridge of Mt. Warlow (to the left, not visible).  Warlow can be ascended via this ridge (class 1) from Muir Pass.  The telephoto lens makes this ridge appear much closer to Mt. Darwin than it is.  Darwin is over 3 miles beyond the ridge to the north.  I summited Darwin more years ago than I would care to admit!
