North Cascades > Mount Baker Area

The directions on the website are good. The only thing that I would add is that the turn off of the Mount Baker Highway to the Twin Lakes Road is right after milepost #46. We made it up the gravel road in our all wheel drive Town and Country Van, I would definitely not recommend a sedan type car on this road. All 7 miles of it are very rocky, filled with large potholes, etc. The last 2 miles are especially bad. The campground near the start of the hike called Twin Lakes Campground is a great spot, we were definitely wishing we had brought a tent to stay the night. The trail is in excellent shape and filled with great views the whole way.
