Stanislaus Peak is a prominent peak near Sonora Pass in the Sierra Nevada range in California, United States.[1] It is located in the Carson–Iceberg Wilderness in the federally-managed Stanislaus National Forest.[2]
Geology
[edit]Stanislaus peak is an ancient volcanic cone[3] composed of andesite intrusion.[4] Near the base of the mountain is a granite outcropping formed during the Late Triassic to Late Cretaceous periods.[5] The granite features are also found in nearby areas, such as Yosemite National Park and the Emigrant Wilderness.
Hiking
[edit]
The peak can be hiked via the trail from Saint Mary's Pass near Sonora Pass. The trail ends at the granite outcropping just below the peak and route finding and a class 2 scramble is required to reach the summit via the easiest approach from the southeast face.[6]
