Big Attitash Summit Location

[TEO]

The USGS topo shows four peaks on Big Attitash with 2,900' contours, the Forest Service map shows only two, however based on trip reports it seems like the easternmost peak is the accepted summit. Is that correct?

I was up there last month and the easternmost peak appeared to be the summit. There is a western peak about 0.5 miles away.

AT 4.7 mi, the trail passes very close to the summit of Big Attitash; the high point is to the right of the trail. Then it descends, moderately at first and then steeply...

(coming from Bear Notch).
