Frazier Mountain is a broad, pine-forested peak in the Transverse Ranges within the Los Padres National Forest, in Ventura County, California. At 8,017 feet (2,444 m), Frazier is the fifth-highest mountain in the Transverse Ranges of Southern California, and part of the San Emigdio Mountains.
Frazier Park and its outlying district of Lake of the Woods are northward of the mountain. The intersection of Ventura, Los Angeles, and Kern counties lies just to the northeast. Interstate 5 runs to the east of the mountain, and Southern California Edison's Path 26 500 kV wires are at its eastern foothills.
Mount Pinos is 21.5 miles by road west of Frazier Mountain. Alamo Mountain and the Sespe Condor Sanctuary are to its south.
Famous quotes containing the word mountain:
“If I am to be a thoroughfare, I prefer that it be of the mountain brooks, the Parnassian streams, and not the town sewers. There is inspiration, that gossip which comes to the ear of the attentive mind from the courts of heaven. There is the profane and stale revelation of the barroom and the police court. The same ear is fitted to receive both communications. Only the character of the hearer determines to which it shall be open, and to which closed.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
