Inspiration Point/Muir Peak & Mt Baden-Powell

[Tara]

Hi! Recovering from doing Mt Wilson yesterday and planning another big hike for next weekend. Considering Inspiration Point/Muir Peak & Mt Baden-Powell. Is Inspiration Point going to seem too easy after Mt Wilson? I’d love something similarly challenging to Mt Wilson, or maybe shorter distance but greater incline. Baden-Powell looks like a great option but does anyone know if there is too much snow to hike it this week? Any info on these or other recs are welcome please. Thank you!

Inspiration Point/Muir Peak is a great option. It’s not as long or quite as much vertical gain, but still strenuous. If you wanted to, you could continue on to Mt Wilson (again).

Baden-Powell is going to have some treacherous snow and require winter mountaineering. I wouldn’t recommend it at this time.
