This weekend had been all about camping and trekking. Emily, Sheila, Tina, Daniel and I went to the Mt. Baldy area. Mt. Baldy proper name is Mt. San Antonio. It is a 10,000+ ft (i.e. 3,000+ meters) mountain just south of LA. Never been here before. So it is all new for all of us. Campground was really nice ...
We saw also this wonderful and colourful butterfly in the area of our tent ...
... and as it happens 99% of the time here in US, there is always the BBQ area, but no showers what's so ever ...
The proper hike will be on Sunday. We will attempt the Mt. Baldy summit, but as a warm up we did a 3 hour light hike today, around 5,000ft. We did it in the afternoon, so it was pretty warm, but it was fun. Here some pictures ...
... after that a gourmet dinner provided by our two English Angels (AKA Daniel & Emily) we had an early bed time. The earlier we get into the trail on Sunday morning, the better it is.

Step into our world. It’s a world of lush green valleys, fertile terraced fields laden with fresh cultivated crops, poring into quiet pine forests of junipers, across glittering glacial lakes... & all this in the backdrops of towering silver grey peaks that speak of a world brimming with adventure... pure adventure... it’s a world that begins with ENCOUNTERS NEPAL.COM... & it never ends there... because it’s a wonderful world!!!
The founding company Encounters Nepal dot com (P) Ltd. is a well known name among travelers to Nepal today. This organization has been formed with over a decade of experience in Himalayan exploration and also covers all aspects of travel within the tourism sector of Nepal. We started with a small group of people with big dreams that we wanted to translate into reality. We have served adventurers from all corners of the globe & we serve them till this day. We have toiled our way up to becoming major operators with a sound reputation in the travel business that crosses over a decade in planning and implementing unique trekking programs and interesting historical tours throughout Nepal, Tibet and Bhutan. After studying and researching the whole gamut of tourism in Nepal we decided to establish our own trekking company Encounters Nepal.com with the sole purpose of being more service oriented than commercially inclined in all areas of our operations.
We are a wholly Nepalese-owned company, having been in business for more than a decade. Based in the world’s most famous tourists’ hub of Asia - THAMEL, we specialize in escorted adventure tours to spectacular destinations throughout the Himalaya across 3 countries. Our mission is to share our passion for travel with like-minded people. Read More
