Made my way to West Baldy on Sunday by way of the Ski Hut Trail. I think I saw Ellen descending as I was ascending. Narrative and some pics here:

I prefer West Baldy now. Less people there. Thanks for the pics.

West Baldy also typically has some nice chill and bivy spots. Great place to be in the mountains without a lot of folks around. Murder, shooting, tons of drugs, sex, and perhaps alien worship.

West Baldy is always worth the trip. I try to go over there for my lunch when I am up on Baldy.

Does anyone know if the Bear Flat trail is open yet?

Bear Flat Trail to Baldy and West Baldy is open once again...it is still a mess on the fire denuded steep climb above Bear Flat, but it was always a pain to push up that anyway.

Nice write up.

By the way, I've actually added one more peak to my 10,000 footer list: Shirley Peak, rounding things out to 25 peaks.

Some have asked me to add another peak, Carmen "Peak", over by 10,000 Foot Ridge as well, but I have so far declined pending a personal visit and site survey.
