WHAT THEY SAY ABOUT US:

"Often described as the heart of snowboarding, Mt. Baker provides the most incredible terrain for snowboarding, per square inc, than any other place on the planet."

- Australia New Zealand Snowboarding Magazine • Issue 1: 2007

"Baker gets more snow than any other resort in North America, but it’s actually the terrain that makes this mountain so great. Solid vert and Alaskan-style descents are all commonplace at Baker, and it’s all within minutes of a chairlift. "

- Freeskier Magazine • 2006

"Local ownership, family-style management and a democratic vision created the unified force steering the [Mt. Baker] ski area toward sustainability. Starbucks, condos and sprawl have been intentionally left off the list in favor of ski-in/ski-out parking, diesel-powered chairs and a mindful preservation of the staggering alpine wilderness that frames the area."
