We study triangles $ABC$ and points $P$ for which the generalized orthocenter $H$ corresponding to $P$ coincides with a vertex. The set of all such points $P$ is a union of three ellipses minus six points. If $T_P$ is the affine map taking $ABC$ to the cevian triangle of $P$, $P'$ is the isotomic conjugate of $P$, and $K$ is the complement map for $ABC$, we also study the affine map $M_P=T_P \circ K^{-1} \circ T_{P'}$ taking the circumconic of $ABC$ for $P$ to the inconic of $ABC$ for $P$. We show that the locus of points $P$ for which this map is a translation is an elliptic curve minus six points, and show how this locus can be synthetically constructed using the geometry of the triangle.
