| Easy trek up. Some snow patches, but nothing to write home about. Lovely view of the Baldy complex of peaks. | |

| Beautiful day to break trail in 6-12" of the gooey-est snow I've been in for a long long time! Winds were a wonderful sustained 35mph with gusts that nearly knocked me over but the sun was out and we stayed pretty warm. Can't wait for a couple more feet of wet stuff to set this baby up for some ski descents! Tagged Burnham as well....boring summit. | |

| Great trail from Dawson Saddle to PCT and then to Baden Powell. One of the best views in the entire range and very popular. | |

| mcphersonm80 | Good Ol BP Date Climbed: Jul 9, 2011 | |
| Third time up BP, one of my favorite peaks boasting my favorite view:  7/9/2011 - Hiked up from Windy Gap, perfect weather, could rest on this summit for days. 1/15/2011 - Snow climb, deep crunchy snow. Followed the standard trail from Vincent Gap for 3 or 4 switchbacks then abandoned it and headed straight up the north face. Icy towards top. Pics here: Baden-Powell Winter Climb | Flickr 11/14/2010 - First ascent, via Vincent Gap, cold gusty conditions. | |

| Snowshoed the northface of Mt Baden-Powell from Vincent Gap. Made the summit under very windy conditions, but afforded beautiful views north into the Antelope Valley and West to the Pacific Ocean. | |

| Haddadb | Faster down than up Date Climbed: Apr 17, 2011 | |
| The mountain is still covered in snow and ice, which gave us a great excuse to practice some mountaineering. We ignored the trail and went straight up a a couloir. It took 5 1/2 hours to slog our way straight up to the summit, and 20 minutes to glissade down. What a rush! | |

| Hyadventure | Deep Pow Date Climbed: Feb 27, 2011 | |
| The best powder day I've ever seen on SoCal. The road to Vincent Gap so we had to hike in a couple miles on a snow covered road. Broke fresh snow all the way to the summit. | |

| Iron Hiker | My introduction to the San Gabriels Date Climbed: Jun 5, 2009 | |
| First peak in the San Gabriels for me, did this from Dawson Saddle not long after ACH opened in its entirety for the first time in years. Very interesting weather, with thunder in the distance and small pellets of hail showering on me! Nevertheless, the views were still excellent and it was a great introduction to the San Gabes for me. | |
