Guffy Camp, possibly one of the best campsites in terms of view.
will definitely do again
Tough ascent back to Baldy's summit!
Every SoCal hiker needs to do the real Devil's Backbone trail.
Climbed Baldy Bowl to the summit, then went north to Dawson Peak and back. Great elevation workout.
Best trail in the range!
Started in Baldy Village, on to Mount Baldy and then Dawson Peak (and then Pine Mountain). Total 9000 ft gain all together. See Trip Report
