It's all relative, and depends on your perspective. If Baldy were on the east coast, it would likely be one of the most sought-after mountains in the US, considering the highest peak in our part of the country is less than 7K'.
Baldy may not seem like much in the nearby shadow of the Sierra, but it would be a jewel of a peak if it were magically tramsported to other locations. You folks are fortunate to be able to debate a 10K' peak's worthiness.
