Medlicott Dome, Granite dome summit in Yosemite National Park, California, US.
Medlicott Dome reaches an elevation of 9,665 feet above sea level and stands between Mariolumne Dome and Dozier Dome along Tioga Road.
The dome received its name in 1882 after Henry P. Medlicott, who surveyed the Great Sierra Wagon Road, replacing its earlier designation as Court House Rock.
The western face features numerous climbing routes with distinct names such as Piss Easy and Holdless Horror, attracting climbers of different skill levels.
Hikers can access the dome from the John Muir - Cathedral Lakes Trailhead, following a 7.5-mile path with substantial elevation changes through the Sierra Nevada.
The granite formation spans across both Mariposa and Tuolumne Counties, creating an unusual jurisdictional situation that affects mapping and documentation efforts.
