Mount Baker and Colfax Peak from the Park Butte Trail

Mount Baker and Colfax Peak from the Park Butte Trail
Yesterday we went hiking. We are in western Washington and had a day free so decided to hike the Park Butte trail on the southwest side of Mount Baker. The trail took us to an old fire lookout (see inset) on Park Butte and we had our lunch there. The lookout is no longer used to watch for fires but can be be used as an overnight cabin. This was the view of Mount Baker and Colfax Peak from below the lookout. We hiked nine miles and climbed and descended 2300 feet, most of the way through snow. There had been several inches of snow which fell the previous evening, but it did not hinder our hiking.

Two lovely images, Ron. When I viewed the other shot of the old fire lookout, I wondered what the view would be - thanks for adding it here. Spectacular is the word.
