| mdostby | Another fun day on Baldy  Date Climbed: Dec 26, 2009 | |
| Climbed one of the chutes in the bowl with a group of good friends that "forjan" put together. Some went up the main trail and some up the bowl. We came down the devil's backbone. Bypassed the "crux" by climbing up to the ridge proper of the backbone then descending the ridge all the way. Very hard snow conditions in the upper bowl. All in all a great day in the mountains with great friends! | |

| fossana | fun day with the socal crew Date Climbed: Dec 26, 2009 | |
| Thanks to Miguel for rounding up the SoCal mountaineering crew (I tagged along only as a pseudo mountaineer). Great group and other than the windy summit, a pleasant day. | |

| TacoDelRio | Two chutes Date Climbed: Dec 17, 2009 | |
| Attempted 'Taco Sauce' (long story), but the mountain fought back. Steepest route I've been on in a while! Backed off after the fight, and went up Dostie's Dare. | |

| Blair | Windy at the Summit Date Climbed: Feb 15, 2009 | |
| Went up with Aaron and Alex. Aaron gets the kudos for braking trail up the snow slog. Cold and blowin 30+ at the summit, my 2nd baldy summit. My winter ascent! | |

| nwhitcomb | lessons learned Date Climbed: Mar 19, 2008 | |
| First ascent of bowl, solo. Got a late start and had some trouble with my crampons, wound up hitting the top near sunset, learning a valuable lesson about climbing in the dark as I got a little lost on the way down. Made it out eventually, though, thanks in part to directions from a helpful snowmobile mechanic. Will be sure to head up earlier next time. | |

| I've done several snow climbs of the bowl, the last being during white-out conditions and severe winds at the top with Taco Del Rio, Travis and Tom Becht. Memorable day with a fabulous group of guys. | |

| johnm | Baldy Bowl Date Climbed: Feb 9, 2008 | |
| The bowl was in great shape with well consolidated snow. Went right up the center. Plenty of blue ice under the snow near the top. Mild temperatures with deep blue skies. Great way to spend the day! | |

| TacoDelRio | We meet again Date Climbed: Apr 6, 2008 | |
| Went up top to check for conditions, and a GPS unit for Alan. No GPS, conditions kicked ass down on the north side of things. Lookin' good. I ascended one of the last remaining snow tongues. | |

| Travis_ | in a storm with a good bunch of guys Date Climbed: Feb 3, 2008 | |
| They figured our odds were slim to make it to the summit, but I was optimistic and we persevered. Here is our Trip Report. | |

| TacoDelRio | Superbowl Sunday Date Climbed: Feb 3, 2008 | |
| Went with Travis, Augie, and Tom! Had a badass time, with full conditions upon topout, and pretty much most of the time. Insane winds at the summit in this Winter storm. | |

| jonmeek16 | First Time up the bowl Date Climbed: Feb 2, 2008 | |
| Yesterday was our first time climbing up the bowl. From the ski hut we took the most center route up the bowl. Not to dangerous, but definitely a workout! The stairmaster at the gym definitely pays off for something like that. Extremely windy on the summit but very worth the climb. | |
