Mt. Baldy

I finally made it out to Eagle River to hike up the notorious Mt. Baldy. Not that ER is terribly far away or anything, but until my friend Lydia gave me the street name to get up to the trail head, I had no idea how to reach the well known peak. The skies were crystal clear on this particular day and Denali was view-able even before I stepped foot out of my car.

Sadly, as this was an impromptu adventure on a restless Sunday afternoon, I did not grab my camera or have very much charge left on my phone. It died about 1/2 way up the mountain but trust me when I say the view from the top was incredible. My camera or phone probably wouldn't have done it justice anyways.
