Very good eye Frank. I'm sure you are right about Mt Baker. The vertical distance for 10778 ft elevation works out for the 1° 49' observed vertical angle. Zoom Earth works in statute miles so the distance is 54 miles to Mt Baker and 10 miles to Mt Erie. Almost a natural range between the two peaks. Chart 18400 doesn't show the Mt Baker peak so the navigator is out of luck :(
