Mount Solomons is a peak in the Sierra Nevada mountain range in the U.S. state of California. It rises to 13,040 feet (3,975 m) directly above Muir Pass. Mount Solomons was named after Theodore Solomons, an explorer of the Sierra Nevada mountains, who mapped and established what is now the northern half of John Muir Trail.
