Another Mt. Baker Trip

April 30th

Another glorious, sunny and almost warm day! Time to return to Boulder Creek to get another good photo of Mt. Baker, but one that is NOT over exposed, as was the last effort.

Mt. Baker from Boulder Creek

A close up of the peak. Steam regularly vents from the top of the mountain, and I suspect that's why the V shaped section to the left of centre appears free of snow. But, of course, it could just be that the sunshine is melting snow hanging to a steep wall.

Another snowy peak, across Baker Lake, perhaps Welker Peak or Mt. Watson.
