Driving to Mount Baker felt like a vacation again, because it reminded me a lot of the mountain drives we had in the Cevennes in France. The day turned out to be not so great, so we were unable to see the great views of Mount Baker in the background like I had hoped. I originally decided to go to Mount Baker because of a facebook friend's amazing photos of the Skyline Divide hike, but ours did not turn out like hers. Nevertheless, walking through the wildflowers was great, and hiking along the ridge still offered majestic views. We were so high up that it felt like we were on top of the clouds, and it was cool watching the mist roll in, slowly obscuring the already limited view we had had earlier.
I would definitely come back here - but only on a clear sunny day!
