N3C Photographer takes cover of Backpacker magazine with photo in American Alps study area!

Remember Ethan Welty? We blogged about his awesome photos of the North Cascades recently. He's an N3C member from the Climbing Club at UW. Well, one of his shots is on the cover of the May issue of Backpacker Magazine!
That's a fellow member of the Climbing Club studying the map. NOT lost, just identifying the peaks!

The official caption: "Climber Brian Polagye reads peak names off his topo map as he stands on the summit of Wallaby Peak, Okanogan National Forest, Washington." - May 31, 2008

Wallaby is in the American Alps Study Area!

Ethan was interviewed, too, and you can read that on the Backpacker "Daily Dirt" blog HERE.
