rockslides all up and down Mt Baldy Road.....need trucks to clear and get the day visitors
yikes. How’d you like to be them.. stranded on top of a craggy mountain after an earthquake!
It was the Northridge quake that first brought the problem of dust to my mind. It raised dust clouds off the mountains in the area, that wafted over populated areas and created breathing and possible infection problems. I’d never heard of that before.
When I was 14 I came down Mt. Baldy road on a 10 speed. I got as fast as 55 mph (I was speeding) and that was back in the days of no helments. Fun, but a little scary and the eyes do water quite a bit a speed. I never made it all the way up to the ski lifts. I think the second hairpin curve was as high as I made it.
