The peak is named for Robert Baden-Powell, founder of the World Scouting Movement. In 1957 several Southern California councils of the Boy Scouts of America placed a formal marker at the summit with a plaque dedicated to him. The Silver Moccasin Trail, a historic 53-mile Boy Scout route, runs over the summit and links it to Mount Burnham, Throop Peak and Mount Hawkins.

The main trail begins at Vincent Gap and ascends through numerous switchbacks to reach the summit, gaining significant elevation along the way. Visitors should prepare for changing weather conditions and steeper terrain as they approach the top.

The Vincent Gap route passes through a stand of limber pines, some estimated at more than 2,000 years old. The Pacific Crest Trail also comes within 0.25 miles (0.40 km) of the summit, reaching 9,360 feet (2,850 m) there, its highest point south of the Sierra Nevada.
