About

Over four years ago, I read “Touching the Void” and I was always intrigued by situation hikers find themselves in and the incredible things they do to stay alive.

This blog is about learning from other people’s mistakes, so you don’t make the same ones.

“Better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in the grey twilight that knows not victory nor defeat”

Man Missing on Mount Baldy, aka Mount San Antonio, in Southern California


A man in his 20s may be missing on Mt. Baldy, a 10er in Southern California. A church group was on a day hike in the Ice House Saddle area of the mountain and didn’t realize they were one man down until they reached the trailhead.

The lost hiker was part of a 15-person group. The man is said to be in good health, carrying food, water and a jacket. But he doesn’t have camping equipment.

San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Search and Rescue is on the scene looking for the man.

Updates as they come. Read the story here.
