More details

In light of recent heavy storms across the state and high winds in the mountain, the police reaffirmed that the weather is "adverse and extremely dangerous" there. According to the sheriff's department's post, "The snow has turned to ice making hiking extremely dangerous." The mountain is close to downtown Los Angeles and is a favorite among hikers. Moreover, Julian Sands vanished just a few days after Crystal Paula Gonzalez-Landas, dubbed "the dancing hiking queen," slipped and died in the area. On another note, in 2020, a 52-year-old Californian hiker's bones were discovered four months after he ascended Mount Baldy. Sreenivas "Sree" Mokkapati went missing on Dec. 8 of that year after he was separated from his hiking group. But the search operation for him was abandoned days later after an officer fell from the mountain and died.
