| cab | Service Road Date Climbed: Jan 18, 2010 | |
| Cdewhurst and I were the only ones brave/stupid enough to be out on the mountain today. Even the ski area shut down! High winds and no visibility ended our hopes for a traverse to Telegraph. I was hoping for a little more snowshoeing, but the warm storm left the snow level at about 7,500 feet so we walked in the rain for much of the trip. Definitely soaked by the end, but had fun nonetheless. | |

| wyopeakMike | from the lift | |
| A couple of times with my family up from the top of the lift. I still never did hike all of the three T's in one day. I did love the times I hiked up Telegraph. The view of Telegraph from Thunder was awesome. | |

| Sam Page | Southwest Ridge Date Climbed: Aug 22, 2009 | |
| Gained the southwest ridge by climbing a subsidiary ridge above Manker Flats. On the subsidiary ridge, which begins about 100 yards down hill from the fire road gate, I encountered steep scree in places and once had to descend and traverse to avoid thick brush. The southwest ridge was pleasant with a few tricky spots where it narrowed. I would rate the route class 2-3. It took me 3.5 hours round trip, including a 45 minute descent from the top of Thunder Mountain via Baldy Notch. I saw nobody on the ascent route. | |

| KVHiker | 6 Peaks 8000 Feet Date Climbed: Jun 20, 2009 | |
| We could see Thunder Mountain (8587â) across a saddle from Telegraph Peak. We made our way back to the 3Tâs trail, and descended in elevation via switchbacks to the Telegraph/Thunder saddle. Our trail traversed around the summit while gaining in elevation to the ski slope on the Baldy side. We hiked up the snowless ski slope with a dormant ski lift on our left. The distance for this section was 1 mile with an elevation gain of 400â. At the summit was a small shack used by the lift operators, and the Mount Baldy Snow Patrol. We took some pictures, and ate some food before heading towards Mount Harwood. Photos | |

| We did the 3 T's today. A bit chilly with the wind, but the spectacular views more than made up for that. Awesome hike. | |
