Sierra Point (Half Dome)   
(37.727286, -119.554494)

Description:
“On that lowly crag one may stand without change of position and behold those five wondrous waterfalls [Upper and Lower Yosemite, Vernal, Nevada, Illilouette]. . . . That this point might no longer remain incognito, but be known to all lovers of Yosemite, on June 14, 1897, accompanied by Walter E. Magee and Warren Cheney, of Berkeley, by right of discovery shared by W. E. Dennison [guardian of Yosemite Valley], I deposited thereon Register Box of the Sierra Club, No. 15, and took the liberty of naming it Sierra Point, in honor of the Sierra Club, and raised a flag bearing the name.” (Charles A. Bailey, in S.C.B., 1898, II:4, p. 217.—See, also, The Vantage Point of Yosemite, by Charles A. Bailey, in Sunset, April, 1899.)       Place Names of the High Sierra (1926) by Francis P. Farquhar
