Sorry everyone, I left to go backpacking over the long weekend, and then life caught up with me when I got back into town. I just now had a second to sit down and check this thread. I wasn't offended by anyone's post; hopefully I haven't offended you all by making you wait so long!
The waterfalls are the flume gorge, while the hut is the lonesome lake hut. I just got back from a different area of the white mountains, so I'll try to post a trip report eventually.
I'll pass it on to billstephenson, since I think he was still closest, and I clearly let the ball drop!

I'm not familiar with the Sierra but will try guessing.
It's a mountain, supposedly well known. Except for the pointy high point, it looks a lot like Fremont Peak in the Wind Rivers. That's not much help, because it isn't!
If it's really famous, could it be Mt. Whitney???? A few images I found online look vaguely like the photo, but not enough to match for sure. So this is a wild guess!
Of course we have a mountain up here in the PNW that is only 95 feet lower than Whitney. Being a volcano, however, it is subject to sudden change--which makes it more interesting.

I have the same problem. My flickr account went dormant in 2011 and I haven't been able to resurrect it. I don't really want to start another one. I've been able to copy/paste a few shots, but everything there is at least 6-7 years old.
