Kuna Peak

Kuna Peak is a summit on the boundary between Mono and Tuolumne counties, in the United States, is the highest point on Kuna Crest. With an elevation of 13008 ft, Kuna Peak is the 146th-highest summit in the state of California, and is the third-highest mountain in Yosemite National Park.

Name
The word Kuna probably derives from a Shoshonean or word meaning "fire," appearing in the Mono dialect of the area, with a meaning of firewood. On the summit, there are many jagged pieces of rock which resemble fire themselves; see Kuna Crest Granodiorite.
