Christmas day was clear, cold and calm - perfect conditions for mountain flying. We headed up to the hangar after breakfast, loaded our camera gear, hooked up the Oxygen and took off to visit Mt. Baker. Following the Skagit River East to Concrete, we cut north along Lake Shannon and Baker Lake and climbed to the summit. We orbited there for a while, then crossed Austin pass to take a look at the ski area and the summit of Mt. Shuksan before heading home to Paine Field.
Here are 11 views of Mt. Baker (just shy of a full calendar set for 2010). Just click on the thumbnails below to see the full-size images.
Happy New Year!
