}}Thunder Mountain in the Sierra Nevada of California is located east of Silver Lake and west of Kirkwood Mountain Resort[3] in the Eldorado National Forest. The mountain has two peaks, the {{convert|9,414|ft|adj=on}} main peak[1] and a {{convert|9412|ft|adj=on}} sub-peak west of the main peak.[4] The main summit is the highest point in Amador County.[1] Due to the high elevation, most precipitation that falls on Thunder Mountain consists of snow.[5]

The peak was named by United States Forest Service personnel because "thunderstorms appear to build up in that area."[6]
