Crater Mountain{{#tag:ref|Geographically, Mammoth Mountain (11059 ft) is considered part of the Sierra Nevada mountain range, not the Mono–Inyo Craters mountain range, but volcanically, Mammoth Mountain and the southern part of the Mono–Inyo Craters share the same precursor activity. Explosion pits and fumaroles on the mountain formed in the last 1,000 years are considered part of the volcanic activity directly related to the Mono–Inyo Craters.{{cite ngs
