Mt. San Jacinto Outdoor Recreation

I was on Baldy yesterday. Lovely day. Very nice in the sun, a bit cool in the shade. I was with my daughter, age 5, who likes to climb on everything, so I didn't summit.


We just went to the ski hut. It was a rather proud moment for me as a hiking daddy; this was the first time my daughter did it all under her own power. This was at least her 4th time to the ski hut (that I can remember). Hiking all on her own is quite a difference from her first time when I carried her 100% of the way.


The hut was open, so we got to go in.


We saw some wild animals.




We saw some friends.


And in some cases "wild" and "friends" were one and the same.


Five miles RT, about 2000' gain/loss. Not bad for a five year old (and her old man father!).

Nah. They just can't stand the sight of blood.
