This mountain compared with Mt. Baldy nearby sees very little traffic due to its daily permit limit. We started at 545AM followed the jeep road for the first 1/4 mile or so until we reached the almost dry Mill Creek, from this very spot just cross the river and you will see the trail sign......we made the mistake of going up the creek 1.5 miles and had to backtrack, it sucked but we marched on and made it to the summit at about noon, stayed about 20 minutes then quickly made our descent and made it back to the TH at 345PM.
It was a great hike with great views once we got close to the tree line and above. There are a few dispersed camp spots along the way up but they also require a backcountry permit. |
