I've been meaning to post some pics of my trip with the kids to Twin Lakes of of Mt Baker Highway here in WA. Enjoy!


Here's the trailhead:


On the way up:






At the lakes(these are actually of the south lake):




















On the way down:








I meant to do this at the lakes, but I forgot till I was all ready down a switch back or two!




It was a perfect day!! Clear as bell and relatively warm for 5000+ feet! I could have swore the snow was deeper, but it was only like 1-2 inches. I think it would be pretty exciting to do this road with 4-6 inches!!!

Wanted to thank lgrt for his post(https://www.yotatech.com/forums/f100...ker-wa-161217/) that reminded me to do this.

Thanks, it's the wifes and thank god she just put brand new BFG A/T KO's on because that would have been REALLY exciting with the ol' factory slicks!

great pic... Looks like you had great weather and just enough snow to have the whole place to your self. I can't wait to get on that trail again, the lakes and hikes from their as outstanding.

Yeah man, I couldn't believe the weather!! It was calm and the bald eagles were up circling the lake. Actually, I wasn't alone! As soon as I hit the trail from the highway I had a second gen Runner come barrelin up behind me. I let them go ahead, so I could enjoy the views. When I got to the spot where the latrine is there was three vehicles there. When I got to the lakes the second gen was there and two other vehicles. So, I went back to the south lake to let them be and a Jeep Liberty showed up. It was pretty busy!!
