Our season opener was a ski/snowshoe climb of Mt. Baker. Snow blocked the road about 2 miles from the trailhead. Doug, Dan, Pete, Jim and Mark about to hit the trail.
The weather was warm and the snow was soft. Jim, Pete and Dan snowshoeing and skinning up to camp.
Mark skinning up the ski approach.
Our camp at 6,100'. Mt. Baker in the background.
Jim above Colfax Peak and Pumice Ridge.
Mark climbing the final 1,000'
