Mount Whitney is found in which California national park?

• A. Yosemite National Park
• B. Sequoia National Park
• C. Kings Canyon National Park
• D. Lassen Volcanic National Park

Answer: (B)

Mount Whitney sits in the Sierra Nevada and is most closely associated with Sequoia National Park. That park encompasses the southern portion of the range where Whitney rises, making it the correct choice. The other parks listed—Yosemite, Lassen Volcanic, and Kings Canyon—are different parts of the Sierra Nevada region and do not contain Mount Whitney as their centerpiece, even though Kings Canyon is nearby. So, the best answer is Sequoia National Park.
