This has been the summer of wildfires. Despite the hot evening (80ish) and smoke from a fire about 50 miles away creating low visibility and poor air quality, we decided to hike at least part way up the front face of Baldy. We ended up going all the way to the top, then down the back side, stopping at the old Wallace homestead's artesian lake to let the dogs cool off.
