Route: Baldwin Posted On: 2019-03-24, By: cottonmountaineeringInfo: Nice trench up to 4wd trailhead, there are debris fields in the usual spots, but a lot deeper than other years. snow is crusty below treeline. Above treeline there was excellent snow and maybe 6" of fresh stuff which made the ski down a lot of fun. |

Route: E ridge Posted On: 2011-05-01, By: d_bakerInfo: We started up Baldwin Gulch Rd (CR 277) from the winter closure (CR 162). Some vehicles have driven up the start of the Baldwin Gulch Rd, but only a short distance of maybe 100yds or slightly more, but only to be stopped by too much snow. I don't see where this is an advantage at this point.
The road is mostly continuous snow, and was firm for us.
From the junction for Baldwin Lake & the Antero route, we headed SW into the Baldwin Lakes drainage. Snow stayed firm beyond this junction, but we eventually put snowshoes on less than a mile from junction due to new powder.
Overall, firm snowpack with maybe 3-4" of new snow on top.
After stashing snowshoes near the mine at 12,586', we took the S slopes to gain the E ridge of Mt Mamma. New snow of ~6-8" inches was bonded with a firm crust layer underneath. Kicked steps up ~30 degree slopes to ridge. Ridge was mostly windblown.
