From here you have a postcard-perfect view of Mount Lougheed and nearby Windtower. Of course no one could possibly herd sheep on these icy stone megaliths, but as the music builds and the tears flow, it makes little difference, does it? See:

“I know where Brokeback Mountain is,” declares possessive John Twist, who seems capable of sharing nothing more than his miserable life with others. But for the inspired people who have told the story in word and on film, Brokeback Mountain is a beacon of community, where respect, openness, and sharing are free to grow and blossom.  It is that spirit that we seek to honor here.

Quotation:
“Jack, I swear.”
