Table Mountain is located near the northern end of the Great Western Divide, a sub-range of the Sierra Nevada in California. The summit marks a point on the boundary between Sequoia and Kings Canyon national parks and is south of Thunder Mountain and northeast of Midway Mountain. Clarence King of the Whitney Survey mentioned in his notes that "At one place the ridge (Western Divide ) forms a level table." The name Table appeared on Charles F. Hoffmann's map of 1873. In 1881 the mountain was named Mount Hazen in honor of General Hazen, the Chief Signal Officer of the U.S. Army. In 1905, the Board on Geographic Names recognized the name Table Mountain. This name appeared on both the ''Tehipite'' and the ''Mt. Whitney'' USGS 30' maps published in 1905 and 1907 respectively.〔 〕 It is the tallest of the 21 peaks named Table Mountain in California. == References ==
