Trail is in good shape. Some blow down has yet to be cleared on the upper ridge.
Baldy offered a reasonable goal in foul weather, with a trail to avoid wet brush, trees to offer some wind protection. and a summit to attain. We gained 3,500' in 6:30 hours of travel. There's still a good display of flowers in the higher meadows.
