Mount Baker in Washington State stands tall in her winter finest. View from Sumas Way in Abbotsford, B.C. The odd clouds behind the peak was there for several hours this afternoon. Very ethereal!
From Artist's Point in Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest in Washington State a wide view of Mount Baker and surrounding peaks of the cascade mountains.
Mt Baker also known as Koma Kulshan or simply Kulshan, is an active glaciated andesitic stratovolcano in the Cascade Volcanic Arc and the North Cascades of Washington in the United States. (Wikipedia)
Mt Baker is located approx.. 150 km/ 93 miles east

Looking up Bolder creek to Mount Baker--the creek feeds Baker Lake. An 80 degree day in October with lots of sunshine--a nice indian summer
It is impossible to be anywhere in this part of northern Washington State and not have the skyline dominated by this magnificent sight. It really is that much bigger than anything else around it
Platform 5 or 6 at Baker Street underground station. This or similar images have been shot a million times before but I just couldn’t resist snapping this on a recent trip.
Here's a different view of Mount Baker. This is taken from the pier in White Rock. The Autumn colour along the walk way adds nice to the shot!
Mount Baker is 3,286 meters high and is the third highest mountain in Washington State.
This image was captured travelling east on the Trans Canada Highway near Abbotsford, British Columbia.

This is an andesite flow from the Mount Baker volcano. As the lava cools down, it forms these hexagonal columns, aligned perpendicular in the lava flow.
Baker's Falls is a famous waterfall in Sri Lanka. It is situated in Horton Plains National Park. The height of the Baker's waterfalls is 20 meters.
Mount Baker glacier-covered andesitic stratovolcano in the Cascade Volcanic Arc and the North Cascades of Washington in the United States. Mount Baker has the second-most thermally active crater in the Cascade Range after Mount St. Helens. About 30 miles (48 km) due east of the city of Bellingham, Whatcom County, Mount Baker is the youngest volcano in the Mount Baker volcanic field. While volcanism has persisted here for some 1.5 million years, the current volcanic cone is likely no more than 140,000 years old, and possibly no older than 80–90,000 years. Older volcanic edifices have mostly eroded away due to glaciation.
After Mount Rainier, Mount Baker has the heaviest glacier cover of the Cascade Range volcanoes; the volume of snow and ice on Mount Baker, 0.43 cu mi (1.79 km3) is greater than that of all the other Cascades volcanoes (except Rainier) combined. It is also one of the snowiest places in the world; in 1999, Mount Baker Ski Area, located 9 mi (14.5 km) to the northeast, set the world record for recorded snowfall in a single season—1,140 in (29 m; 95 ft).
Mount Baker is the third-highest mountain in Washington and the fifth-highest in the Cascade Range, if Little Tahoma Peak, a subpeak of Mount Rainier, and Shastina, a subpeak of Mount Shasta, are not counted. Located in the Mount Baker Wilderness, it is visible from much of Greater Victoria, Nanaimo, and Greater Vancouver in British Columbia, and to the south, from Seattle (and on clear days Tacoma) in Washington.

As seen from the top of Table Mountain. Mount Baker is 10,781 feet high and is an active glacier covered stratovolcano. It's most recent eruption of new lava occurred 6,700 years ago. It is expected to erupt again, but eruption is not considered imminent.

No scenic backdrop here. Was walking the old dog on the beach and saw this nice moon rising behind Victoria Shipyards, with a slight glimpse of Mt. Baker in the background.

Another waterfall shot from Sri Lanka. This one is one the Worlds End walk and very easily accessible. Should of went here first rather than the other way to get better light.

This is 221B Baker Street, which is said to be the most famous street in Britain and around the world, and is reminiscent of the birthplace of detectives. Known for the addresses of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson.
Baker Beach is part of the Presidio, which was a military base from the founding of San Francisco by the Spanish in 1812 until 1997. In 1904, it was fortified with disappearing gun installations known as Battery Chamberlin, which can still be viewed today.[3] When the Presidio was decommissioned as a U.S. Army base, it became part of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area, which is administered by the National Park Service.
