    It should be in the same "range" of mountains as Sierra. The most obvious would be the Sierra Nevada. The tallest is Mt. Whitney, so the Sierra Whitney?
    There are also groves of Sequoias, so the Sierra Sequoia would be a name that would be, unfortunately, commonly misspelled--so don't want that!

    dave,
    I also like the "summit" name. How about Sierra S-3 for Summit 3 way? Its abbreviated and maybe easier for folks to remember.

    Good luck,
    Brandon

    Others for the list:

    Sierra Stimulus
    Sierra Sanctum
    Sierra InSpire (spire can mean tall and slender)
    Sierra SurMount (pun intended)
    Sierra SurPass (pun intended)

    But seriously, here are some more useful suggestions:

    Sierra Insight

    Sierra Citadel

    I still really like Sierra Summit.
    Quee and I must share a brain! Sierra Summit and his two offerings are my faves so far.

    Yup...that's why I suggested "Alpine" and "Tahoe"...both areas/cities in the Sierras.

    The Sierra Summit or S-3 seems to be growing on me, but I wonder how many newcomers will wonder if there is an S-2.

    "Skyline" I think has a nice ring to it too.

    And I wonder if Jonny really only had one scotch.

    There have been a lot of good suggestions, I don't have one of my own, but I like the one above the best. My vote would go to:

    The Ascend Cascade Tower

    or maybe the Ascend Teaton Tower?

    It keeps the trend of naming the speakers after mountain ranges and the name "Cascade" has a certain sense of sophistication about it. Way better than Rocky, or Alp, Himalaya IMHO.

    Summit sounds great, i personally think that the sierra crest tower would be the best name. Crest is a synonym related with summit(highest point possible).
