Mount Gabb (13,747 feet (4,190 m)) is in the central Sierra Nevada in the U.S. state of California.[4] Mount Gabb is in the John Muir Wilderness of Sierra National Forest and is named after William More Gabb, a paleontologist and member of the Whitney Survey.[3]

The ascent up the south face is a class 2-3 climb from Lake Italy. Alternatively, the peak can be accessed from Upper Mills Creek Lake, and is a class 2 climb.[5]
