'''Basin Mountain''' in [[California]]'s eastern [[Sierra Nevada (U.S.)|Sierra Nevada]] range is a large and prominent peak near [[Bishop, California|Bishop]]. Basin Mountain is not as high as its neighboring peaks, [[Mount Tom]] and [[Mount Humphreys]], but it dominates the view to the West from Bishop as it rises above [[The Buttermilks]]. It is a relatively easy scramble to the top. The summit is not especially notable, except for the wonderful views it offers of Mount Tom, which dominates the skyline just to the north. The night-time views of Bishop and the Owens valley are spectacular.
