Re: Bear Flat Trail (Baldy Village)

I know that this trail was closed for a while, but I believe I recall hearing that it would reopen this summer.

Does anyone know if it's open again? I'm interested in going up tomorrow, 8/1.

Thanks in advance!

Wilson 5-26

Went up Wilson today. I got there at about 6:30 and motored up, only stopping for a bite at Manzanita Ridge. I got to the top at about 9:30. Then, instead of the usual, lame turning around and going back down, I decided to tour everything the summit of Mt Wilson had to offer for 2 hours. I walked ar...

Re: Evening/night hikes

Thanks all! I think I may go do this sometime soon. I'll swap the sunscreen for a pole or two to fight off wildlife, including punk kids. I'm excited about the lack of sunlight, since sun exposure is a good big issue for me. It'll feel nice covering up and not sweating in 80+ degrees! I'll share fee...

Evening/night hikes

Work's busting my hump about being in the office Mon - Fri (imagine that...), and the gf hasn't given me much free time on weekends. Does anyone ever do late hikes that start in the early evening (post-rush hour)? I was thinking of hitting a trail head around 7:00pm Mon - Fri. I'm intimately familia...

Re: Pictures or posters of local mountains for sale?

I have taken photos on many of my hikes since that is a new hobby of mine. Being a former professional wedding videographer, I do frame photos well, but if they are the quality or style you would like I guess its up to you. I love many of my photos. I have photos of Sturtevant Falls area, Mt Baldy,...

Pictures or posters of local mountains for sale?

Does anyone know about a place where you can get pics of various peaks or wider shots of the San Gabriel/San Bernarndino/San Jacinto Mountains? I was thinking of putting a couple of framed shots up around the walls of my office, but I can't find much out there.

Thanks in advance!

Baldy or Wilson

Is anyone interested in hiking Mt Wilson or Mt Baldy together this Thursday, 2/28? I've done Mt Wilson Trail and Old Mt Baldy Trail. I'd be happy to do a new trail, although I haven't yet done anything but these two. I'd prefer arriving at around 8:00-8:30am, although I could arrive as early as 7:30...

Re: INTROS - New members, introduce yourself here!

I'm Matthew. Like many, I'm getting increasingly older, which is quite depressing. Still, I'm just 32, and my engine has a lot of miles left. FYI stuff: I enjoying playing soccer and bass. I'm spending more and more time on the latter these days. I also enjoy reading, making yummy smoothies, being a...
