Eocene Peak

Eocene Peak is a granitic summit with an elevation of 11,569 feet (3,526 m) located on the crest of the Sierra Nevada mountain range, in northern California, United States. The summit is situated on the common boundary shared by Yosemite National Park with Hoover Wilderness, as well as the common border of Mono County and Tuolumne County. The peak is set approximately three miles southwest of Twin Lakes, 1.3 mile southeast of Kettle Peak, and one mile south of The Incredible Hulk. The nearest town is Bridgeport, 15 miles to the northeast. Topographic relief is significant as the summit rises nearly 2,000 feet (610 meters) above Piute Creek in one mile. The first ascent of the summit was made July 16, 1932, by Richard M. Leonard and Herbert B. Blanks. This landform's name has not been officially adopted by the U.S. Board on Geographic Names, so the feature is not labeled on USGS maps.
