You mean the little triangular one on a post? They'll have letters and numbers on them like Y27 or something like that.

They're all over the place in the SG's. Some kind of survey markers or something. They're really old and mostly gone from frequently visited places, but I've run into them in odd spots on remote XC ridges and such. Dunno what they were originally for.

Now you are ready for Baldy from Heaton Flats via Big Iron (just kidding)

Thanks.

I've kinda cooled off from wanting to do that traverse (too long of a car shuttle). However, I think I've come up with a better idea and still check out the tough parts of that ridge

(too long of a car shuttle)

car shuttle?

[Zé]

yeah, I think you should come pick me up. I'll even hike down the Baldy Village trail for you

After that kind of hike i would want a helicopter ride.
