Join your fellow PNWR members for a scenic drive through Snohomish, Skagit and Whatcom counties. Starting from the Twin Lakes Best Buy parking lot (with Starbucks and other options nearby), we'll be taking purely back roads zig-zagging our way northward all the way until you can see Canada out your car window, then snake back over and up the mountain to Artist Point. Once there, take some time to soak in the stunning views of Mt Baker and Mt Shuksan (weather permitting), socialize, or take photos - but don’t wander too far away. After visiting Artist Point, we’ll circle back down to the ski area where we'll have lunch at Heather Meadows Cafe.
