The name Three Brothers

Their original name

The Ahwahnechee name was "Kom-po-pai-zes", or sometimes "Pompomposus", is translated as "mountains with heads like frogs when ready to leap".[4]

John Muir

John Muir considered the view from Eagle Peak to be the most beautiful view of Yosemite Valley available.
