Triple Divide Peak is a mountain along the Great Western Divide in the Sierra Nevada range on the border between Kings Canyon National Park and Sequoia National Park, in Tulare County, California. It rises to 12,640 feet (3,853 m).[1]
Near Kaweah Gap, the peak divides three important watersheds: the Kern River, the Kaweah River, and the Kings River. This three-way divide leads to the peak's name.[3] At one time, it was also called The Keystone.[5]
The Kaweah Peaks Ridge spurs off to the south,[3] while the Kings-Kaweah Divide branches off to the west.
