  location of Scodie Mountains in California [1]
|
|
The Scodie Mountains are located in the Sierra Nevada Mountains in California in the United States. The range lies in an east-west direction directly west of the town of Ridgecrest and southeast of Lake Isabella. The mountains reach an elevation of 7,096 feet at Cathie's Peak, and lie to the north of the Jawbone-Butterbredt Area of Critical Environmental Concern. The range was named by the USFS for William Scodie, who established "Scodie's Store" at the mouth of what is now called Scodie Canyon (ca.1860).
