Come join us for a fun snowshoe up Keechelus Ridge.

Baker Lake East Bank Trail Hike
Tuesday, February 7, 7am, Meet at Bethany Green Lake, $5, Moderate, 8 miles round trip, 500' elevation gain, Register
Magnificent old growth forest, fabulous views of Mount Baker, turbulent tributaries, and a beautiful lake make this trail a great path to travel. And thanks to the trail’s low elevation, it is accessible even when most other Cascade trails are buried under snow. More information can be found at the WTA website. We'll leave from the southern trailhead.
