False Baldy

[ Sizes: Orig | Large | Med | Small | Thumb ]

While certainly a worthy destination, this cairn does not mark the 8914ft summit of Baldy Mountain as found on USGS maps. I have positioned the shot so that the true summit is directly above the metal pipe. I verified this with a GPS receiver. The top of the next hill in the ridge on the left is 8711T

Great Info

Thanks for posting this. I verified this with my GPS as well. The first time I was up there I thought this was the summit of Baldy. I think most people do. This information should probably be on the main page for Baldy.

	Voted 10/10	MTcutts, I have rewritten the Baldy page after taking it over from the previous owner; I included the information about the false and true summits in the new page. Tim
