Baldy Alto

I am pretty sure this is Baldy Alto. Stewart Peak is located on the right side of Nutras Creek.

On your topo map, you show a right turn to start heading up to the ridge to the east of San Luis. Is this where you are saying you took the picture? This picture looks well below treeline.

Topozone shows Nutras Creek always to the left of Stewart Peak ending in between Stewart and Baldy Alto. This is the route I took down.
