Park Butte — Saturday, Sep. 27, 2025

North Cascades > Mount Baker Area

The road in is potholed and rough, but i think most vehicles would be fine. We drove around many of the larger potholes. This trail is brethtaking. Today the ground was damp so we had no dust from the trail. It was surprisingly uncrowded. The temperature was perfect for a hike (65 f or so) with little wind. Blueberries carpeted the area and they were ripe and sweet. A creek crossing was challanging for some. We hiked upstream and found a good spot to rock hop across. On our way back we found some kind soul had made a crossing out of wood. Once at the Lookout there were people, but plenty of room to check out the lookout and surrounding views. Mount Baker maintained a cap of clouds just above the bottom of the glaciers but we even got some sun.
