It's a very, very steep slope. You wouldn't want to fall there and not immediately self arrest. | | Posted Mar 25, 2006 4:26 am |

Hasn't voted | North face of West Baldy. West Baldy is maybe a quarter of a mile along a connecting ridge from the more well known peak Mt. Baldy (offically Mt. San Antonio)(10,064'). These two peaks are at the east end of southern California's San Gabriel Mountains and are about 35-40 miles from downtown L.A. | | Posted Jun 11, 2007 11:24 am |

Hasn't voted | When did you have this shot taken? I'm planning on a route up from the canyon bottom to the summit of W Baldy. Apparently it was strong enough to hold you up, unlike the powder I usually find! | | Posted Sep 15, 2007 9:53 pm |

That was Jan. 2006. The coverage on that slope was solid and hard. Be interested to hear what it's like to go to W. Baldy from that canyon bottom.

Hasn't voted | Awesome, thanks.
I'm hoping to descend via Dawson Peak Trail (heads down west into Lupine). | | Posted Sep 17, 2007 10:24 am |
