Waterman Mountain, at 8,038 ft, is a prominent peak in the San Gabriel Mountains of Los Angeles County, California within the Angeles National Forest. Several small ski areas are located on its north side: Mount Waterman, Kratka Ridge, and Buckhorn Ski Club. The Buckhorn and Cooper campgrounds are below the Angeles Crest Highway.
The peak was originally named "Lady Waterman Mountain" in honor of Liz Waterman, but the United States Geological Survey omitted the title.
