Cedar Glen is a nice little campsite in the Mount Baldy area with plenty of good flat tent pitching spots amongst a beautiful grove of Cedar Trees. (could be where they came up with the name) It is a 2 ½ mile hike with a 1400’ elevation gain. The site itself is at around 6500’ which means we may have some warm days. The trail is sun exposed at times so you may want bring your hat. No permits necessary because we won’t be within wilderness boundaries. If you plan to take a hike into the wilderness area, you should call Mt. Baldy Information Station to get a permit (909) 982-2829. I’m sure you can pick one up on the way. As always you need an Adventure Pass to park. (get one at most sporting goods stores, or look for vendors on the way)

To get there, take the 210 freeway and get off at Baseline. - turn left and then go right on Padua Ave. (north) for about 1.8 miles. Turn right at Mt Baldy road – Go about 8.9 miles and turn right at Icehouse Canyon – the trailhead parking lot will be immediately on your left. Take the Icehouse Canyon trail up for a mile – turn left at the fork (Chapman Trail) and head on up another 1.5 miles. See you there!
