- Johnson Peak is the highest mountain, in Tuolumne Meadows, Yosemite National Park. Johnson Peak is made of eroded granite. At 85 Ma, the is the youngest granite rock in the Yosemite National Park, though the entire peak formed beneath the Earth's crust. It broached the surface much later, via subduction. Despite it being a fairly easy hike, Johnson Peak climbed less frequently, as its many neighbors. Yet from summit, there are lovely views of those same stunning mountains, particularly Unicorn Peak, Cockscomb Peak, Echo Peaks and Matthes Crest. To the north and east, you can also see Mount Conness, Mount Dana and Mammoth Peak, and to the southeast you can see Mount Maclure and Mount Lyell. (en)
