Solo Trip to Ontario

Started at 430 and the first 2 miles you do 1500 feet of elevation and find out exactly what kind of shape you’re in. Once you’ve crossed all the rocks in the stream and you end up on the actual trail. Not too bad from there to the saddle, steady uphill, but mostly switchbacks. First glimpse of Mount Baldy in the distance. Bugs are out early. I wore pants and long sleeves and they didn’t bother me much. Saddle to Ontario wasn’t bad but once that sun is out it’s hot and it’s exposed. Bring lots of water and start early. Beautiful views great hike
