Yosemite Hikes masthead (Washburn Point)
Peaks north of the Grand Canyon of the Tuolumne

Peaks across the Grand Canyon of the Tuolumne

For the most part, your views to the northeast are blocked by trees; you'll have to explore a bit to find a place where you can see these peaks. You'll also need a telephoto lens to get this close a view of them; this photo was snapped at 300 mm.

I wouldn't bet any map-reading merit badges on it, but it's likely that the mountains on the horizon are Regulation Peak (10,554 feet/3,216 meters), Pettit Peak (10,788 feet/3,278 meters), and West Peak (10.529 feet/3,209 meters).
