    Hiking

    West Baldy lies directly west of Mount San Antonio (Mt. Baldy) via a well-marked, well-traveled trail. Standing at 9988 feet above sea level, this high sub-peak to Mount San Antonio offers fantastic views of Mount San Antonio and the surrounding area. In comparison to Mount San Antonio, this summit is quiet and can be a nice place to escape the crowds at the high point of Los Angeles County.
