As far as I know you don't need a permit to dayhike the peak.



This is true of every Sierra peak except those accessed through the special Whitney Zone out of Whitney Portal.

"The mountain was named in 1878 by the Wheeler Survey for one of its members, J. H. Morgan, of Alabama. (Gudde, Place Names, 211; SCB 4, no. 4, June 1903: 290; USGS Bulletin 310, 161.) The mountain and creek are named on the first Mt. Goddard 30' map, 1912. The other names first appear on the 15-minute quads."

Re: Mount Morgan South

The person who owns this page hasn't been on the site since 2015. I asked them if they are able to provide updates. If I don't hear from them by the end of March, I will take over the page. I have hiked this peak and should be able to flesh out the page more fully.
