Wow, what'a ride!

There was a little snow that made for cool bottoms and wet pants.

The Devil's Backbone was narrow, slow going and we we're glad the wind wasn't blowing 30 kts.

At the summit, the victorious hikers pause for a photo shoot.

Another training day took us away from Serenity NOW but closer to our goal, Mt. Whitney. The Admiral, Jabbermouth and I hit the trail last weekend to hike Mt. Baldy (Mt. San Antonio). Baldy is the highest peak in LA County. We started at 6100 ft elevation and ascended to the summit at 10,064 ft. Very nice panorama and we could even see our beloved Catalina Island. Our trip was eleven and a half miles and it was strenuous, tiring and exciting at times. The Devil's Backbone (ever wonder how things are named?) was slow going but we made it. Let's go sailing!!
