Mount Morrison is probably the most infamous mountain of the Mammoth Lakes area of the Sierra. Its North Face is a spectacular sight and has earned the nickname 'Eiger of the Sierra.' The rock in this area is noted for it's superb coloring in shades of white, yellow, orange, red, and brown, which is composed of Dolomite and Marble - basically metamorphosed limestone. The age is Pre-cambrian making it some of the oldest rock in the Sierra.
The rock is very loose, and caution must be exercised when climbing it's routes.
