These mountains, which are up to 30 miles wide in places, surround the Priest Lake basin. The Selkirk peaks are formed of granite from the Kaniksu Batholith and Spokane Dome granite and Precambrian rocks from the Belt Supergroup series. The name "Kaniksu Range" is sometimes used to identify the mountains west of the Priest Lakes; the central crest is sometimes known as the "Priest Range."</div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <div> <B>WHAT'S NEW?</B></div> <bR> <bR> <div> <A HREF="Shorty%20Peak.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Shorty Peak"><U>Shorty </U></A><A HREF="Shorty%20Peak.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Shorty Peak"><U> Peak </U></A><A HREF="Shorty%20Peak.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Shorty Peak"><U>  </U></A><FONT SIZE="3" COLOR="#0000FF" FACE="Arial" >Click here for information of this Class 1 peak which is not in the book.</FONT></div> <bR> <div> <A HREF="id191.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Harrison Peak"><U>Harrison Peak</U></A>  <FONT SIZE="3" COLOR="#0000FF" FACE="Arial" >Click here for detailed scrambling information and photos of this great Selkirk  peak.</FONT></div> </td> </tr></table></body>
