*Summer 2022… the road to this trailhead washed out several miles from the top. The hike can still be completed but takes much longer.

This is the “iconic” hike that many people come to this area to complete. It takes you past wildflowers, waterfalls and over several stream crossings eventually landing you face to face with the spectacular Coleman Glacier.

Stunning views of Mount Baker. Challenging trail but popular in the summer.

Hands down one of the best hikes we've ever done. You may meet people heading up or down the summit of Mt.Baker.
