Made a run at Monrovia Peak, but was turned back by icy snow conditions on the east ridge about 400' short of the peak. Hiked up via the Upper Clamshell /Rincon-Red Box roads for a nice 20 mile round trip walk in beautiful conditions. Great views.
Looking up the shaded, steep east ridge (having just trail runners on, I couldn't make any progress up this part - I don't own any winter gear
)...
Looking north towards Islip Saddle...
Mt. Baldy, etc. from White Saddle...
