Goat Mountain — Tuesday, Oct. 27, 1998

North Cascades > Mount Baker Area

We hiked three miles up the trail. The trail was in good shape. From about two miles on there was some wet snow, but the trail was always visible. The views of the Nooksack Ridge, Shuksan, and Baker were about the clearest I have seen. We had the trail to ourselves and a look at the registration book indicated light use. Although this is a moderately steep trail the bed is in such good shape that it take a lot of the hard work out of it.
