In the summer, the entire Mount Baker recreation area offers an incredibly scenic drive and all kinds of hikes in the upper alpine. The highlight is Mount Shuksan 9, 127 feet which many mountaineers claim the most beautiful peak in the Cascade Range. The alpine lakes around the recreation are provide excellent reflections, with Picture Lake attracting herds of tripod-wielding camera enthusiasts.

Coming back from the last day of the Mountain West Music Festival at Whistler, we pulled over at the Tantalus lookout to watch the amazing sunset.

This is my favorite peak on the Sea to Sky Highway, it looks like it would be an intimidating mountain to climb.
