This time, our trek took us to Mt. Baldy. We took the same road up, GMR. This time we passed the shack and continued up Glendora Ridge Road to Baldy. 2 Cars passed us on the way up, 1 car passed us on the way down. Lots of cyclists passed us going both ways. Time to head out. Kenny had to fix his bike again. Time to ride! View of whats ahead from the shack. Break time means put warm clothes back on. More empty roads ahead. Kenny's bike broke again. While Kenny was fixing his bike, I went on a hike. The trail I followed looked to be about 6 inches wide and only traveled by mountain animals. Somehow Kenny fixed his snapped cable by tying multiple cables together. Ice puddles! We made it to snow! Dirty snowballs. Just before the downhill to Baldy Village. We made it! We met Jake in Baldy Village. He was our guard dog. He took us on a tour as well. We never did find out who lived in these places. Victory! We never made it to the heavy snow. After the village there 2 miles of switchbacks and 1 mile of 15% grade, with winds that would have blown us over. It was up that way though. Grub before we head out. Time to head out. Back at the car finally.
