John Muir wrote in a letter to Mrs. Ezra S. Carr that "I have named a grand wide-winged mountain on the head of the Joaquin Mount Emerson. Its head is high above its fellows and wings are white with ice and snow."[7] It has been suggested that Muir might have intended to confer the poet's name on Mount Humphreys which had already been named by the Whitney Survey.[8] References1. ^1 2 {{cite peakbagger |pid=2683|name=Mount Emerson, California |accessdate=December 1, 2014}} 2. ^{{cite sps}} 3. ^{{cite gnis |id=1658498 |name=Mount Emerson |accessdate=December 1, 2014}} 4. ^{{cite Roper |name=Mount Emerson |page=243}} 5. ^{{cite Secor |page+321 |edition=3}} 6. ^{{cite web |url=http://peakery.com/mount-emerson-california/ |title=Mount Emerson |accessdate=October 13, 2014 |publisher=The Peakery}} 7. ^{{cite web |url=http://vault.sierraclub.org/john_muir_exhibit/life/life_and_letters/chapter_10.aspx |title=The Life and Letters of John Muir |first=William Frederic |last=Badè |publisher=Sierra Club |accessdate=December 1, 2014}} 8. ^{{cite book |first=Peter |last=Browning |title=Place Names of the Sierra Nevada |page=65 |isbn=089997-047-8}} External links
