Graveyard Peak is an 11,539-foot summit in the Sierra Nevada of northern California, within the John Muir Wilderness and Sierra National Forest. Though only California’s 535th-highest peak, it stands out locally for its steep relief, with its south face rising more than 2,300 feet above Devils Bathtub in about a mile. The mountain sits on the Silver Divide and marks a drainage boundary between waters flowing north to Fish Creek, a tributary of the San Joaquin River, and south toward Lake Thomas A. Edison. Its name came from nearby Graveyard Meadows, named for two murdered and buried sheepmen, and the peak’s first recorded ascent was made on September 8, 1935, by William Stewart and David Parish.
