How many switchbacks does Mt Baden Powell have?

Baden-Powell. The trail is the most difficult route to the summit but is the most popular way to reach the top.

This 8-mile trek features a set of 35 switchbacks up the north face of one of the tallest mountains in the San Gabriels. See how low that it sits down low in the middle of the rest of the mountains?

Just prepare for possible heavy cross winds and possible sub arctic temperatures up above the tree line or where the trees begin to become sparse.

You may not be able to use your fingers to sign in at the top or to open and close your fly.

I was able to get my fly of my pants open to pee but I couldn’t close them back up because of frostbite.

Yes, Baden Powell is close and is waiting for you.

It’s top not over 12,00 above the sea level.

It’s 9,407’ above sea level.

I climbed Mount Baden Powell with my Dad when I was 7 yrs. old.
