| awilsondc | via Maynard Burn on the way to Gray Wolf Date Climbed: Aug 19, 2012 | |
| Well, the Maynard Burn trail lived up to it's reputation although it wasn't too bad all things considered. Baldy had some great views, but the highlight of this particular peak for me was the scree ski descent on the way to Gray Wolf. Fun! Clouds has socked in everything below ~4000 ft but in was sunny up high so the scenery was terrific! | |

| olymountainman | A nice ridge climb Date Climbed: Dec 4, 2012 | |
| Climbed Baldy along with Tyler Peak, and the no namer in a quick early winter day hike. Great climb, not a good one to break in a new pair of winter boots though, ouch :( | |

| IBentryn | Worth regular visits. Date Climbed: Jun 19, 1997 | |
| Now that I've found the Tyler Way Trail, I'd vote the best loop is in the counter-clockwise direction. Prettier Tyler on the way up - no-nonsense Maynard Burn on the way back to the car. | ||

| Mountainjeff | great views Date Climbed: Sep 4, 2011 | |
| Went up the Maynard Burn way trail, Met a couple on the false summit who told me about the recently reopened Tyler peak way trail. It is by no means less steep, but seemed to be a better trail. I used it on the descent and would probably hike it again. | |

| pingzingr | Baldy via Maynard Burn Date Climbed: Aug 27, 2011 | |
| Wow...Maynard Burn was no joke! Steepest hike I have probably done. Made the saddle in two hours and then another 30 minutes to Baldy. Went off the top of Baldy on to Gray Wolf after a quick lunch. Beautiful day in the Olympics as usual. | |

| TimmyC | Part of a wetwetwet Gray Wolf Ridge walk Date Climbed: Aug 9, 2010 | |
| Apparently this is a lovely summit, but the weather didn't let me see more than a few dozen yards of it at a time. Wet. Did I mention how wet it was? Wet. | |

| MachSix | Burn Trail Date Climbed: Aug 8, 2010 | |
| Was planning on going to Gray Wolf, but the other climbers in my party were moving slow and didn't want to continue, so we just grabbed Baldy via the Burn Trail. Weather was foggy, so we couldn't see a whole lot from the summit (another reason to not go to Gray Wolf). Fun climb nonetheless. Would like to come back for some better weather with a possible camp high on the mountain! | |

| Redwic | While En Route To Gray Wolf... Date Climbed: Jul 14, 2010 | |
| I took the (STEEP) Maynard Burn Trail to the ridge below Baldy's false summit, and then summited Baldy from that location while en route to Gray Wolf Peak (Ridge). I then returned back to Baldy, and continued along the ridge to Peak B and Tyler Peak. Great views and great weather. Small wildflowers were just starting to bloom. | |

| Mountainjeff | Upper Maynard Burn Trail Date Climbed: Mar 19, 2010 | |
| Took a pretty easy pace as I was carrying skis. Snow started at 5000ft,but most of the ridgelines were snow free. Watch out for cornices and the ever present avy danger during the winter. | |

| tleaf | My screensaver pic Date Climbed: Jun 16, 2006 | |
| at the moment. I've climbed it a few times, narrowly escaping blisters on that damn fire break trail. This last time we climbed it we went on to summit Gray Wolf as well and the fields were in bloom with lupine, a heavenly sight! | |

| gimpilator | Gray Wolf and Baldy Date Climbed: Nov 4, 2009 | |
| Robbin, Dave and I did Gray Wolf first and then Baldy on the way back. We used the Maynard Burn trail this time since last time we followed the old Baldy trail. It was fairly warm for November and there were only a few patches of snow on the ground. | |

| gimpilator | old Baldy trail Date Climbed: Jul 31, 2009 | |
| Robbin and I occasionally caught whiffs of smoke as we did Baldy and Peak B. It seemed to be blowing into the valleys from the south reducing visibility. There was a flying ants nest on the summit. | |
