I hiked up Baldy via the Ski Hut Trail a few years ago. I thought it was harder than Whitney lol. It just goes straight up! I'm also very sad that the Mt. Wilson trail has probably been destroyed by the Bobcat Fire. That was a very underrated hike.
After doing some research it appears this is a Mt. Baldy in California (for anyone who wondered, since there are a bazillion Mt. Baldy's or Baldy Peaks, etc. in the US.)
Another great hike! Stunning views from up there. Great job filming this too! Not easy with the slippy slide sand and scree. When did you start coming to the states for your hikes and backpacking? Thanks, Jarl! 😊🐝🙏
The top ascent reminds me of hike to May lake in Yosemite. I need to check if you have hiked Great Basin UT/NV I love this remote spot and yes cheers. Thank you.
@@NorwegianXplorer I have never been to the Ruby mountain range. When I looked up location on my map I had circled Lamoille area of interest. Happy hiking.
@@d.w.3325 It looks cool, Joey brought it up as a potential place to go, I remember driving on the east side , through the Great Basin area, towards Idaho a few years ago and wonder what that mountain range was.
You seem to hike there a bunch. I’m guessing you’re located in SoCal? You mentioned applying for some Sierra Permits. What’s on the agenda? For my first trip I’m eying a trip into Mitre Basin to fish the alpine lakes and climb Mt Pickering, Joe Devel, and possibly The Mitre.
Nice, yes, I am in SoCal. Mt Baldy is my "home" mountain, the mountain I go to when I am feeling lazy and just need to get out there, I am usually never disappointed by it, it has so much to offer both summer and winter. I just applied for a few permits in the sierras and I got one for the Twin Lakes area in SEKI, I am not really familiar with the western side, so that should be fun, might go up Mt Silliman and do some off trail stuff from there. I also have one for late summer/early fall from Horseshoe meadows, might do a long trip or a short one, dont know yet:-)
Parts of that trail remind me a little of Clouds Rest in Yosemite. What amazing views from up top! Was that a snow plant in the lower-center of the frame @11:16? Thanks for sharing your hike!
Great video. Was this on 5/31/20 and what time did you start this hike? Is any part of the Devils Backbone so narrow that one can fall? Is it more windy in the P.M.?
Yes it was, I dont remember but I think I say when I started in the video, was it maybe 11:30am? You can fall yes if you are not carefull, but prob not on the backbone itself, the part right after is more scary IMO. I try to find the days with least wind to hike any mountain, its much more enjoyable at the summit then.
Very cool. What is it with having a dozen Mt. Baldy's in every state anyways? I'm making the switch to 4k60 as well. Man it does wonders for the stabilization doesn't it!
@@NorwegianXplorer I've met a number of people on trails here in AZ that told me they make the trip to CA just to day hike Mt. San Antonio, looks pretty awesome.
@@NorwegianXplorer @1:01 there is a coin operated phone. I haven't seen one of those in years. I wonder if it still works because AT&T shut down payphone maintenance in 2007.
Welcome to another episode of Jarl and his dreamy mesmerizing bells and scenes of splendor and beauty;)
Hahahaha, thank you😁
Thx for the update on trail conditions Jarl. Always appreciated. Picked a perfect day brother....Cheers
Thanks, yeah, I hadnt even planned on going so I got there late, but the timing was actually perfect lol, beautiful day!

Thanks for watching, I hiked Wilson once, didnt really care for that hike, but its sad that its affected by the fires.
New episode awesome
Thank you, appreciate it:-)
Thanks Jarl.would love to this soon.iam from northern california.cheers
You should!
Love those ridgeline trails! I'm wary of intense exposure but the trail near the top did not seem too slippery
Its good trails, so no problem, much different during winter though, which put this mountain on the top 10 list of deadliest mountains in the US😳
After doing some research it appears this is a Mt. Baldy in California (for anyone who wondered, since there are a bazillion Mt. Baldy's or Baldy Peaks, etc. in the US.)
Yes, I should clarify that in the text, thank you! Its actual name is Mount San Antonio
You are correct. I know of a Mount Baldy adjacent to the White Mountain Apache Reservation near Greer in Arizona.
love beautiful mountains
Me too!
Looked like a good day to get up there and soak up the views!
Yes, perfect day on Mt Baldy!
Your video is really amazing, like it!
Thank you, really appreciate it!
Nice views all around it looks like. Thanks!
Yes, the views are epic up there!
Another great hike! Stunning views from up there. Great job filming this too! Not easy with the slippy slide sand and scree. When did you start coming to the states for your hikes and backpacking? Thanks, Jarl! 😊🐝🙏
Thank you very much!
did they find what happened to last winter missing hiker Sree Mokkapati?
I dont think they did, I am pretty sure we would have heard something through social media if they did.

Hey, I have not hiked any in Great Basin, but have been looking at the Ruby Mountains recently.

Damn video looks great! Did you use a gimbal or stabilize the video in post?
I film at 4k 60fps so none of that is needed, 🙏 Thank you!
It's nice scenery but scary most especially I have a fear of height
Some people have, thanks for watching
Peace and Beauty... Namaste amigo!!
Thank you, you too!!
looking great with that beard !
Lol, thank you, my first time with a beard lol

Yeah, theres a lot of them, its official name is actually Mount San Antonio
Yes, the 60fps is the key to amazing stabilization and much smother on moving scenes

@@WildlandExplorer Really? it is great mountain and definitively my go to mountain, it would be worth a weekend trip to go up there for sure.
Nice video! What camera and settings are you using?
Thanks, this was filmed with an iphone 11 promax
@@NorwegianXplorer Wow! Worth every penny!
@@Kevin_Ho70 Indeed!
A payphone?!?!
Payphone?

Haha, oh yeah, I have no idea lol
No likes shoot I’m the first like then boom
