Thanks for the comments, guys! Mount Baker is pretty unique, as the mountain holds
the world record for season snow fall with 29 meters (1,140 inches) some 15 years ago. Even their average annual snow fall is ridiculous 17 meters (669 inches)!

This winter saw "once-in-10-years" snow, so you better hurry if you want to see the snow at its height as in my photos. It will take until August for all the snow to melt and sometime in July they will be able to open up the road up to Artist Point which is a very beautiful viewpoint in the first photos on this thread.
Mount Baker ski resort is not very developed and offer enough runs for one day, but the location and the snow is the reason why people travel there, even internationally. It is definitely worth a drive from both Seattle and Vancouver.
