At 8,914 feet, Baldy Mountain is considered the first notable high point on Bridger Ridge when starting from the south (aka, from the Bozeman side). You have views of multiple mountain ranges from up on the ridge (including the Crazies, Absoroka-Beartooth, and Gallatin Range), and you can tackle this peak from multiple trailheads. This rocky summit is one of the most popular on the ridge.
