If you’ve been planning a ski trip to Washington, you’ve probably already heard about Mount Baker. The mountain is a ten-hundred and seven-hundred foot active volcano that provides excellent snow for winter sports. In fact, the ski area at the base of Mt. Baker is the only option for snow sports enthusiasts. This destination is the third-highest mountain in Washington State. This article will give you the inside scoop on Mount Baker’s skiing and snowboarding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When visiting Mount Baker, be sure to bring your camera. The Mount Baker Ski Area is an expert’s mountain. Its steeps and trees make it a difficult mountain to navigate, and the powder is amazing. However, the real reason to visit this ski area is its unmatched backcountry terrain. You’ll find endless amounts of powder here, as well as a virtually untouched wilderness. Here, you’ll experience the real beauty of this mountain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you want to get the most out of your visit to Mount Baker, you should start at Bellingham, a town located about an hour’s drive from Mount Baker. In Bellingham, you’ll find a variety of dining and lodging options. Try the Lettered Streets Coffeehouse for locally-roasted coffee and pastries. If you want to stay up high and enjoy the view, book a room at the luxurious Hotel Bellwether. Then head over to Ogden’s Peak, which is said to be the world’s highest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Mount Baker National Forest has several hiking trails, including Artist Point, which is the most popular snowshoeing route. Artist Point is located just beyond the Glacier Mountain Ski Area, above the Heather Meadows. This trail is approximately five miles round-trip and is best for experienced snowshoers. Once you’ve completed the route, you can enjoy the delicious food at Milano’s Pasta Fresca Market & Deli in Glacier. If you’re looking for a tasty meal, try the homemade pasta dishes and Caesar salad. For dessert, try tiramisu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While visiting Mount Baker, you might be wondering what to do next. A good place to start is Snoqualmie Falls, which is the most popular waterfall in the state. This 270-foot waterfall was featured in the opening credits of the television show Twin Peaks. The hotel on top of the falls doubles as the Great Northern Hotel. For a closer view, hike down to the base of the falls and you’ll find less tourists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the outdoorsy type, there’s a wide selection of wineries. The Argyle Winery, for instance, specializes in sparkling Pinot Noir, while Alloro produces Italian wines. While you’re here, don’t miss the harvest season, when the town is full of fun festivities. This is also the perfect time to enjoy the wine. There’s plenty of time to take pictures and explore the picturesque landscape!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another great hiking location near the town of Port Angeles is the Cape Disappointment state park. Located in the southwest corner of the state, it’s the perfect stop on an Oregon Coast road trip. The park has several hiking trails and a guide that will point you in the right direction. Hiking along Rialto Beach is also an adventure, thanks to the stunning view and picturesque hikes. You’ll also find one of the best known sea stacks on the Washington coast here. This is the Hole In the Wall trail.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
