Talk:Boney Peak

Snowfall

It snowed heavily in the low elevations in Newbury Park in March 1989. It also snowed on the summit of Boney in March 2006.LorenzoB 00:52, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

Two Boney Mountains

Okay, I've done a little research and sorted out what happened here. This page was a description of Boney Mountain, a ridge in Point Mugu State Park seen from the 101 freeway. But it was named and linked to as Boney Peak, a nearby peak in the Santa Monica Mountains NRA. Finding it through the link from Santa Monica Mountains, I added the photo and stats for Boney Peak.

I'll rename this article to Boney Mountain, and remove applicable bits to a separate Boney Peak article. --Justin 18:32, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

Mystery Mountain

There is a page on Peakbagger.com (see reference in reference section). There is, however, no data at U.S. Board on Geographic Names for Boney Peak in Ventura County. There is data for Boney Mountain but the coordinates do not match. If his seems wrong to you it might be the best to start a new article about Boney Mountain which is currently a redirect. I already moved this article and asked to have it moved back. --DRoll (talk) 01:57, 2 December 2008 (UTC)

I found a feature near the coordinates given in the article using this. Zoom in closely, and look a little west. It gives U.S. Geological Survey Geographic Names Information System: Boney Mountain for the point. How's that for a kettle of fish? —EncMstr (talk) 03:29, 2 December 2008 (UTC)

I just tried the GNIS link. Interesting way to find out their database server is Oracle. But the mapping URL uses the same database—I thought. The mystery deepens. —EncMstr (talk) 03:30, 2 December 2008 (UTC)

Boney Peak, Exchange Peak and Tri-Peaks, all listed at Santa Monica Mountains#Named Peaks and in Peakbagger's database, are local names; they're not recognized by the BGN. Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area's website has a local map of Circle X Ranch showing them here. It has elevations and locations, but no coordinates listed.

Boney Peak is the specific rockpile in my picture. It's not Boney Mountain, which is the high point on a another ridge, and deserves separate coverage.

I believe the original author and I confused the two when I first added the photo and infobox, then realized the o.a. had written about Boney Mountain. --Justin (talk) 15:37, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the PDF. I created an external link for it in the article. --DRoll (talk) 19:40, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

Waterfall?

I removed the information about the waterfall because

1. The was not citation.
2. The location of the summit is not well defined.

I'll try to resolve this somehow but it might take a while. –droll [chat]
