No problem! Conditions were great up there.

The Baldy Bowl trail is pretty clear as far as the route of the actual trail until you get up past the ski hut. Once past the ski hut, there are a lot of use trails that veer off from the mail trail - especially in the last mile or so. Not hard to stay on track, just keep heading up. Once you top out on Baldy the devils backbone trail, which you will be taking down, is clear and well defined. The only snow I saw was when I went up was on the back side of Mount Harwood which is up and to the north of the main trail. Have a good time! The hike up the Baldy Bowl trail looks pretty brutal to ascend. I was glad I was heading down it.
