• All About Baker. So what gives us the snowiest mountain in the world?
• Snowmobiling. A lot of people are thinking snow these days. Skiiers, sledders, snowmobilers... environmentalists ... the National Park Service ... the President....
• Hiking. Spring is at hand, and although many of the higher trails won't open until later, along the Mt. Baker Highway, there are many beautiful and interesting places to stroll.
• Ski to Sea. An intimate look inside the Big Ski to Sea Race.
• Dreams Coming True. For such a small community, the Maple Falls area is bursting with big dreams coming true.
