mt. san antonio/mt. baldy

so i set out explicitly to not hike mt. baldy because i had promised a friend i would wait to do it with them. my fiance was like, great! we can do mt. san antonio instead! well…about 500 feet below the summit we realized they are indeed the same mountain. hehe accidentally hiked mt. baldy 🤪 it was quite challenging (especially on the descent) even as an experienced hiker, but so rewarding and beautiful. we hiked counterclockwise but i think clockwise would’ve been a little better. a must-do SoCal hike!
