Washington anons here might recognize this mountain. Mt Baker seen from the Ptarmigan ridge trail on the North side. Had a pleasant dayhike here with Dad and the Gf. We made sure to fuel up in Canada before heading down so that we could avoid spending any money in America. Hope you guys down there come to your senses soon bc you're going down a dark path.
One thing I admire though is Americans really do build excellent trails, and a hell of a lot of them. Wide, well graded, with few obstacles, and relatively little red tape to hop through in regards to permits. Its something we could definitely learn from.
Mt Baker towers above everything in the North Cascades, and it's always been a dream of mine to summit it with my dad, and bring my grandfather's ice axe up to the summit while doing so. My father and grandfather summited it with a guide back in the 90s, but haven't been up since. I've been up a handful of times on skis, but since my dad doesn't ski I'm hoping to get there next june with some experienced friends so that I can bring him up to the top before he gets too old.
