Gets a ton of snow, but conditions can be variable as with other PNW resorts. Has some of the most extreme terrain of any resort and the side county is really good. Has some really good tree areas, and has a very local feel, with old lifts and cheap (comparatively) lift tickets. The only downside is it can be flat in places, but thats usually right after some cliffs or really steep runs and so you should have speed.

Mt.Baker is an amazing mountain when its got lots of snow. The problem with this mountian is its got short runs and a lot of people frequently go here so the mey is to go on the weekends and aim for the days when they are getting snow.

I have been to Baker exactly once. It is a magical soggy place where you get to travel through a straight up rainforest until you reach the snow level. It's quiet and will put a HUGE SMILE on your face.

This resort normally has great snow and friendly staff. The scenery is off the charts. Make sure to check the forecast as it rains quite a bit, but on that occasion the lodges are great places to rest and get good food.
