We went up, we came down. The weather was warm & sunny! See photos for more details.

If you're planning to do this route (starting from Boundary Ranch) to get to Old Baldy Mountain or Baldy Ridge, I'll pass on a tip from Kerry V: Contrary to the description in Nugara's scrambles book and the most recent GemTrek map, there is no substantial trail up Flat Creek (and no noticeable creek for that matter) until about 1600m elevation. The best thing to do is to follow the road / horse trail until you reach a clearing about where Flat Creek should be. There may be a few teepees. Then follow faint trails east up the hill until the trail and creek become more prominent.
