TLDR

Mount Baldy trails have reopened after three recent deaths, bringing the total number of fatalities to nearly two dozen over the past decade. San Bernardino County Sheriff Shannon Dicus is calling for public safety improvements, citing the frequency of rescues and the lack of concern for visitor safety. The reopening comes with warnings of hazardous conditions, including snow-covered trails, icy sections, limited visibility, and the potential for sudden storms.
