Leaving from the lodge at 5pm

Enjoy this relaxed paced hike up to Artist Point and back to the lodge. Weather depending, we will have beautiful views as we climb up to the Artist Point trailhead. Once at the trailhead, we will follow the trail toward Huntoon Point stopping amongst a beautiful rocky area with views and then make our return to the Mt. Baker Lodge.

Plan on bringing your dinner and/or snacks to enjoy at our turn around point. Depending on the group's progress, we will have about 30 minutes to enjoy our food before heading back.

There is a vault toilet at Artist Point in the parking lot.
