Trojan Peak, Mountain summit in Inyo County, California.
Trojan Peak rises to an elevation of 4,251 meters above sea level, ranking as the sixteenth highest mountain in California within the Sierra Nevada range.
The name originates from Chester Versteeg and Ralph Chase, who named it after their university, following the rejection of their initial suggestion of Southern California Peak.
The summit forms part of both the Sierra Peaks Section challenge and the Vagmarken Club Sierra Crest List, drawing mountaineers to test their skills.
Most climbers access the peak through George Creek before May 15 or via Shepherd Pass Trail, with Wright Lakes providing suitable camping locations.
Located near Lake Helen of Troy, the peak features a substantial elevation gain of 435 meters within half a mile from the lake surface.
