The Silver Mountain (Site) anchors the northeastern corner of this Sierra Nevada landscape, representing the mining history of Alpine County near the turn of the 21st century. High-elevation prospecting is evident through a concentration of named sites including the Exchequer Mine, Lady Franklin Mine, and Aetna Mine. These features are situated amongst a high alpine environment defined by peaks like Raymond Peak and Highland Peak, and a network of water bodies such as Kinney Reservoir and Sherrold Lake.
