hard to get detail of the mountain. Too much haze in the sky. Basic editing didn't help me get rid of the haze either =)

I used a ND4 filter and a circ pol filter

In cases like this a graduated ND filter could help.
I find this photograph well succeeded considering the circumstances.

Good tonal range in this shot - I like how you kept some detail in the foreground.

The whites could be still brighter without losing contrast in this well detailed image.

Great scenery! I feel this shot could perhaps benefit from a slight adjustment in Levels or Curves. It was very possibly an overcast day, but having a little more range from black to white would really make this shot pop!

This might benefit from a little more contrast.

Cool looking mountain. The contrast on the image is a bit flat. There really isnt much dynamic about it - it's just a bit drab. My craving is to see this in color. As a b&w it just doesnt stand out well. No vote - just comment.
