Mt. Baldy got snow.
Please get the update at:
https://10064ft.comYou may see some activities on Ski hut camera this weekend.
Unfortunately, Mt. Baldy is still closed till 12/31/2025
Local Mt. Baldy regular, Jim, sent a letter with 10 reasons several weeks ago to the Deputy Forest Supervisor at Angeles National Forest requesting for timely re-opening of Mt. Baldy. The letter was well received on several points, but the decision had still remained the same. There may be a possibility to reopen one of the trails by the end of 2024 according to the response card from ANF.
If we express our views more, they may reconsider their decision sooner.
Icehouse canyon, 3T, and Manker flat/Fire Road loop are open. We can hike Ontario, Bighorn pk, Cucamonga, Etiwanda, Timber, Telegraph, and Thunder Mountain.
All fire departments have done extraordinal efforts to save Mt. Baldy community. We must thank you for their great efforts. The lower part, 7500 ft, of Bear canyon trail was completely consumed by the fire looking from Ontario peak.
Please spend as much money possible even a cup of coffee at local businesses in Mt. Baldy community.
Have a great hike except Mt. Baldy.
P.S.
Hi Snacking Bear,
I didn't know whether the pack was unattended or not.
