Details

Advanced hike.

Mt. Baldy via Bear Cyn. to Peak and back 12 miles/5,800'

Gain per mile 960'

I have not hiked this route before. The pace of the hike will be slower considering the elevation gain and loss. Hiking poles will be helpful on the downhill.

Bring 2-3 liters of water. Heavy rain or the forecast of heavy rain cancels.

Parking is on Mt. Baldy Road since Visitor Center closes at 3:00pm, display adventure pass.

Warning: Hike at your own risk. I am not the leader just a person suggesting a hike. The group will decide what it wants or doesn't want to do.
