Overview  Panorama view of Bridger range, Baldy on Right
This mountain can been seen from all over the Gallatin Valley. Baldy has a very bulky appearance from Bozeman and appears the tallest from Bozeman. This can decieve most as it is the 2nd shortest of the 6 named peaks in the bridgers at 8,914 feet, it is still a very hefty goal.
Getting ThereFrom Main St. in downtown Bozeman, head north on North Rouse Avenue 4.2 miles to the signed trailhead on the left. En route, the road curves right and becomes Bridger Canyon Drive (Highway 86). Turn left into the trailhead parking lot.
