This past Monday I attempted to drive to Artist's Point, a well known scenic area on the slopes leading toward Mount Baker, in the Northern Cascades Range. Didn't quite make it; the road to Artist's Point was closed for the season. (I subsequently learned it opens in July). I got as far as the Mount Baker Ski Area and trudged through the snow a bit to the vantage point you see here. That peak is Table Mountain, which is just over 5700 feet in height. (Nearby Mount Baker reaches 11,000, but I couldn't see it, perhaps due to cloud cover or perhaps I lacked a vantage point, not sure.) I dearly wanted to trudge further to get a better vantage point for photos of the little lake you see here, but I would have needed snow shoes.
