Midnight Madness Part #3

Bryan and I have other engagements for Saturday and Sunday so we decided to do another Midnight Madness hike up Baldy.

Manker Flats Trailhead = 9:30 PM
Ski Hut = 10:35 PM
5 minute Break
South Ridge of Bowl = 11:05 PM
Summit of Baldy = Exactly Midnight (ok one minute before)
10 minutes for pictures and grub
Back to car 2:10 AM
Home 3:05 AM

3:30 AM Bedtime for Bonzai

Pictures Monday - left the card reader at the office today, sorry Sad
It was dark, the city lights were fantastic in all directions and we saw a baby owl on the ground under a tree, other than that no one was out there, not even a bear.

Very Happy  Sleep time
