Ascent of North Baldy Mountain on 2009-08-22Date: | Saturday, August 22, 2009 | Ascent Type: | Successful Summit Attained | Motorized Transport to Trailhead: | Hi-Clearance Vehicle | Peak: | North Baldy Mountain | Location: | USA-Washington | Elevation: | 6173 ft / 1881 m |
Ascent Trip ReportDo yourself a favor and park at the saddle at 5800'. A direct ascent up grass slopes and then boulders is possible from here. I drove the road to the switchback to the N and regretted it. It is passable but not worth it. Looks like the rocks right next to the end of the road are a bit lower than some other rocks about 50 feet N.
