Mount Boardman is a mountain located in the Diablo Range in California. The peak, located on a border junction consisting of Santa Clara, Alameda and San Joaquin counties, rises to an elevation of 3,618 ft (1,103 m).[2][3] The mountain has a subpeak called Mount Boardman North or Alsan Peak, which rises to 3,626 ft (1,105 m), an elevation higher than the main peak.[4] The north peak, unnamed on topographic maps, is located on the Alameda-San Joaquin county border, and thus, the subpeak is the county highpoint of San Joaquin County.[4] Some snow falls on both peaks during the winter.[5]
