Dunderberg Mill is a ghost town[2][3] located in Mono County, California on Dunderberg Creek 10.5 miles (17 km) south of Bridgeport,[4] at an elevation of 8609 feet (2624 m).[1]
Two versions are current on how the place got its name: first, that it was named after the Union Navy man-of-war USS Dunderberg, and second, that it was named from the nearby Dunderberg Mine.[4] Dunderberg is a Swedish word meaning "thunder mountain."
