Have passed Baker "hill" 100 times in my travels along Stockton Pass road always thinking "one day".
Today was it, parked along Stockton and within one hour I was on top. Baker is no Everest at only 4268 (173 eg), but it was fun mazing up the southeast slope through the cactus field. On top I found 2 markers, a pile of rocks and excellent 360 views! Took a short cookie & coffee break before climbing down the western slope and continuing on up P Ranch Canyon to the first and quite amazing boulder field. Played under, on top & around the boulders for awhile before returning back to the start. No good wildlife spotted until the drive out where a huge mulie buck ran across the road. Baker Peak ..... Check!
