I am few weeks behind my blog but here is the Mt Baldy hike that me and few of my friends did 3 weeks ago. The hike was about 11 miles we took the lift back down and the elevation is from 6000ft to 10000ft, which it was a decent practice for out Cactus to Clouds hike next month. Here are some pictures of the hike.

This was the 2nd time I been to My Baldy. The last time I did it was 2 years ago... in the winter. It was a bid different, because none of us were really prepare to hike in the snow. As you can see in the picture, the hikers behind me are well equipped and the only gear I got was my sunglasses. At this point we really through we would just turn around and call it a day.

Here are my people that did the winter Mt Baldy hike with me.

But then we decided to charge up the hill and see how far we got. Here are the rest of the pictures. We actually drove down a bit because we through it was too dangerous to hike at that elevation without the proper equipment, however we just kept on going and past every hiking groups we saw. We did got very near to the top, however I think we couldn't make it to the peak. I guess I completed the mission 2 years later.
It was more fun doing the hike in the winter, because we didn't know how far we could gone, we kept getting the wtf are these guys doing look from the hikers that we past. I will update the blog on the hike we did in the Bay.
