Backpacking | 12.6 miles
Backpack trip with following route:
Manker Flat – Ski Hut Trail – Mt Baldy – West Baldy – Eastern
section of the San Antonio Ridge – West Baldy –
Mt Baldy – Devils Backbone – Ski Lift Trail – Manker Flat
Overnight on the ridge and back out the next morning.
Easy trip. Made the peak in 1 hour 15 minutes just moving along. But then again I was solo, times are much slower in group settings. Also, I'm not the fastest trail blaizer, period, so many can keep a faster pace.
Started at Dawson Saddle and hike to Mt Burnham, Throop Peak and Mt Hawkins. Ended the day back at Dawson Saddle. This trip a couple of weeks ago whould have been extremely tough lasting all day since the only way up was either Mt Baden Powell or Mt Islip. Now with the Highway 2 open again it's a piece of cake.

Hiked from Blue RIdge to Pine Mountain down Pine Mountain Ridge to the river. From there up to Vincent Gap and a car shuttle back to Blue Ridge.Great hike that gets steep the last couple of miles on the ridge with some brutal bushwacking. Also no trail, route finding required. Will do it again, hopefully this year.
Hiked over Towne Peak to the SA-16 Albatross.
