Mt San Antonio

13 Best Hikes in California

"Mount Baldy is a serious day hike—about 14 miles round-trip with nearly 4,000 feet of ascent to a summit at 10,064 feet—typically taking around 8.5 hours; it's rated difficult but is dog-friendly and requires no permits or fees, and rewards strenuous effort with sweeping views from the Mojave to the Pacific." - Eric Rosen Eric Rosen Eric Rosen is a Los Angeles-based journalist with a focus on luxury travel, loyalty programs, food, and wine.
