Kuna Peak, Mountain summit in Yosemite National Park, California, US

Kuna Peak is a summit on the Mono–Tuolumne county line, the highest point of Kuna Crest. It reaches 13,008 feet (3,965 m), the third-highest mountain in Yosemite National Park. Its west side lies in Yosemite, its east side in the Ansel Adams Wilderness; Koip Peak stands a mile east, 40 feet lower.

Kuna Peak lies on the crest between Mono and Tuolumne counties, with its western slope in Yosemite National Park and its eastern slope in the Ansel Adams Wilderness of Inyo National Forest. The sources record no first ascent, so the mountain's documented history is one of survey and naming rather than climbing. Its name comes from a Shoshonean word for fire, used in the local Mono dialect for firewood.

The name Kuna probably comes from a Shoshonean word for "fire," in the Mono dialect of the area meaning firewood. The jagged pieces of rock on the summit themselves resemble flames, and the rock is named Kuna Crest Granodiorite.
