The story

Robinson Peak is a mountain with an elevation of 10,793 feet (3,290 m) located in the Sierra Nevada mountain range, in Mono County of northern California, United States. The summit is situated on the boundary of Hoover Wilderness, on land managed by Humboldt–Toiyabe National Forest. The peak is set above the west end of Twin Lakes, two miles east of Victoria Peak, and 1.5 mile southeast of line parent Eagle Peak. Precipitation runoff from this mountain drains into tributaries of Robinson and Buckeye Creeks, which are within the Walker River drainage basin. Topographic relief is significant as the summit rises approximately 3,700 feet (1,100 meters) above Robinson Creek in 1.5 mile.
