Beautiful day to do a hike.  But the weather forecast was totally off.  Supposed to be high 70’s, very slight chance of rain, low pressure system.  By the time I was down around 1 pm, my car read 91 degrees at the trailhead, 98 when I got down the hill into Claremont.  So hot, my national parks pass melted.

Parking.  Got there at 5:45 AM.  Had to park on the slope side.  By 5:50 AM, people had to park on Baldy Road.  So get there super early.

Trail is in great condition.

Bees.  Previous posts were talking about Bees on the summit.  I saw a few bees, but they really didn’t bother anyone.

Also, in the photos.  I put a before and after of the burn scar from the Bridge Fire.  It really did a number, never seen a mountain side so barren of vegetation.

Video of the hike.
