Bellingham to Mt. Baker Drive sponsored by H&R Springs.

http://www.hrsprings.com/wanderlust/events/

I've done this drive the last couple years as have a few other people on here. It's a great drive up to the ski area at Mt. Baker. Artist point is open up this year as well so after the meet you can continue all the way to the top.

 

Would love to do this - such a great drive!
Have a wedding that evening, but may still try to make it....

 

I will probably do this drive, it's been a while since we went up
to Mt Baker, I'll combine it with a short hike at the Artist Point.

 

Remember, if you're planning on parking at Artist Point, you need a Discover Pass (that they don't sell at the lot).

 

I've done that drive before. It's a nice one. I have a wedding on that day though, so can't make it.

 

Hey, Wave.

Can you PM me?

 

Hey otoppero/chris, I tried to message back but I guess I don't have enough posts send messages...

Looks like I'm a no-go for this drive.
I have a wedding that day which will take more time then I thought.

I still might try to make it to Exotics @ RTC in the morning if possible, tho!

I need 2 more posts to send a PM

 

Actually 1 more now

 

Well I know now that I already know you, "WAVE". I thought that it was very funny (K.B.)

CKP, It is all good. Just wanted to see if you wanted to meet before the meet. Comcast and Sprint's service both went down on me shortly after that message so I could not respond in time, sorry. Did you end up going? It was a pretty good event sans bicycles near the summit.

 

Here are a couple of pictures form Saturday's Mt Baker drive,
yes there were a lot of bicyles, I especially liked the peleton,
they were riding four wide through the best part close to the top.
It was still a nice drive, after hiking, about 7pm on the way down
there was almost no traffic and no bicyles, I was following an Audi
TT with an older couple in it, for an "old" man he sure was driving spirited

 

There was also a group of classic Porsche's at Artist Point

 

Now I wish I had detailed my Porsche before I came out...she looks a little dirty. Thanks for posting the pictures btw.

We set off after most of the group left as well. A lot faster going down as well. Thanks to G-Man, Merrik and Daniel for coming out too. Bigger thanks to H&R for hosting the event, providing food beverages and prizes too. I had a great time and will definitely go again.

 

This looks like a good run - thanks for posting pics!
Wish I could've gotten some rides together this summer.
I was so swamped with work, unfortunately.....

 

Here's one more picture, this is where I was parked.
