Thanks to Aaron (Quest for BCM), Kathy Wing and everyone else in the group for a great day 8) On my fourth trip up the Baldy bowl, the conditions were finally good enough to glissade down. My glissade speed is not fast but it beats walking
Ellen,
glad you had fun knocking down pins on Mt. San Antonio! i saw Kathy's photos of the day and it looked really purdy! congrats on enjoying the glissade. it's not how fast you go, it's how much fun you have (safely)!! cool weekend for you to get in another two'fer!
i was up there yesterday, the wind was howling and we got hit with zero viz on the summit. that mtn always earns your respect.
Thanks -- it was a lot of fun 8) I'll never forget my first time up the bowl with you, Lilbitmo, Dave G, Taco and Zach in the fall of 2009 when it was icy and we had to hike down the summer route.
It was windy on top of San Jacinto yesterday too, but nothing like the wind I've experienced on top of Baldy. I think Baldy is "special" when it comes to being windy.
