Climb 3,300 feet on a five-mile trail to a Forest Service lookout on top of Baldy. Along your journey. stop at the BLM Scenic Overlook 1.5 miles ahead and take in an excellent view of the Wood River Valley. Cross Graduate, College and Flying Squirrel ski runs and relax at the Louis Stur Memorial Fountain three miles ahead. There, refresh yourself with a cool drink before finishing your journey to the top.

The Bald Mountain Trail is one-way (going uphill) for mountain bikers.

    The lower part of the trail is a bit of a brute ... sections of loose gravel, roots and rocks.
    Gradient feels at least 5% - often more.
    Hard work!

    Being close yo town, there are also lots of hikers and runners. All were polite, but it can interrupt the flow somewhat.
