| Loved this trail, steep and rocky in spots but it has to be, wonderful views, and fabulous wind-stunted trees along the way. | |

| Good hike to the summit however I prefer routes to the summit past the ski hut, or if modivated from Baldy Village. | |

| I could go for hiking this trail, but instead I ran it in the "Baldy Run to the Top". Amazing views! | |

| Interesting warm, windy, cold, sunny, dusty hike with my daughter who has found that she really does enjoy hiking more than 2 miles! Her first 10K summit was a thrill for me as well. Actually saw 3 other humans and NO the lifts weren't running. :P | |

| MtnLdr | Ouch!!! Date Climbed: Jul 27, 2008 | |
| I actually went up the ski hut/bowl trail, and came down the backbone. I just hate out and back type hikes. Anyway, this trail is amazing! I have to try this hike again in reverse. I can't wait for winter to get here now. I can only imagine how beautiful this ridgeline would look with snow! | |

| SoCalHiker | Very nice! Date Climbed: Jun 8, 2008 | |
| Hiked up directly under the ski lifts to Baldy Notch and then the Devil's Backbone. Not too many people on the summit; about 15-20 at 10am. | |

| Blackmouth | Winter Ascent Date Climbed: Feb 6, 2008 | |
| Took the Devils Backbone to Harwood to Baldy to West Baldy and back. It was one of the nicest days I've had on Baldy and I had it all to myself. | |

| InsertHere | Nice day, very windy Date Climbed: Sep 23, 2006 | |
| Baldy Notch/Devil's Backbone to summit, descended Baldy Bowl. Great route, didn't ride the lift up. Very windy summit push at the end, lots of people turned back which was unfortunate - the summit was pretty calm and enjoyable. | |

| kaine7 | Push for the Top Date Climbed: Jul 18, 2007 | |
| Beautiful weekday ascent, no one else on the summit. Can someone set up a climber's log in a jar there? Came down a ski run on the way down to save time. Highly recommend this hike for its views, but be ready for some steep ascents. | |

| Done several times, but not with a bike. Someday that will happen. One of my all-time favorites. | |

| MtnAv8r | My Favorite | |
| The Devils Backbone is my FAVORITE on Baldy. I have done this one so many times I cant even remember, but I know that I have never had a bad time on this route. Just a Fun way to spend a day. | |

| I left my wife at the ski lodge and hiked up the backbone. Met some guys practicing their snow skills for Denali. They were heading there in June. I hope they were successful. | |

| grunt | Ski lift to Devil's Backbone Date Climbed: Oct 28, 2006 | |
| Nice hike, pleasant conditions. Made the mistake of coming down a ski run on the way back - was hell on my knees, but very quick. | |

| TacoDelRio | Relaxing Date Climbed: Jan 1, 2006 | |
| I always end up walking down this route at night on my way back from West Baldy or Baldy. It's a nice relaxing walk down, just gotta be careful where it gets narrow. | |
