While you hike along one of the few flat sections of the John Muir/Pacific Crest Trail, you can enjoy the view towards peaks like Mammoth Peak without watching your footsteps every second. Mammoth Peak is located at the northern end of the Kuna Ridge.

Mammoth Peak is located at the northern end of the Kuna Ridge in Yosemite National Park, very close to the John Muir Trail. Its summit appears round and rocky from the road. Not nearly as popular as the higher peaks in the area, it still offers spectacular views of the summit.
