I hiked Mt Baldy today. I hiked through Devil’s backbone trail, and I highly recommend it. You should go to the Mt Baldy resort first. The road to the resort gradually inclines, so it’s good for beginners. However, when I started Devil’s backbone trail, it was super hard. Especially the final part of the trail was hell. I took a break for every 5 mins to get to the top. The weather was cloudy in the city, but it was clear in the mountain. It took more than 7 hours.

P.S Bring sunscreen! Also, don’t forget to put the sunscreen on your hands. My hand got a sun burn
