Re: Big Horn Sheep sighting - Ski Lifts
Either they are getting used to people or they wanted a snack. At what time were they photographed?
I bet you wont see them around on Labor Day when there are hundreds of people for the race.

Re: TR:Baldy on Bike
Nice work. You need good brakes for a caper like this.
I have not seen any bikes on the Skyline trail yet for obvious reasons.
I read something about a handicapped person using a hand powered bike to go up Mt Kilimanjaro.

Re: 20110604 Iron Mountain and Allison Gulch
Nice pictures
Two other groups went up Big Iron via the Baldy traverse. They started at Baldy Village.
One was a Sierra Club group and the other party was Rick Kent, Gigamike and Rick Graham.

Great trip report. Thanks for reminding me why I stopped hiking Iron Mtn in favor of Skyline where you can take the tram down. That descent is truly brutal on a tired body.

Dave and Norma - The wayward tracks you were following belonged to a former Dane named Torben Thomsen. I could not sleep well that night and morning thinking of what you were going through. Brrr.
I am so glad it had a happy ending.
