Baker Lake Classic 25K

The Baker Lake Classic 25k occurs in a beautiful serene fall setting. Stands of giant old growth trees draped in lichen and covered in moss are some of the highlights along this trail. This trail leads into a majestic stand of douglas fir that regrew after Mt. Baker erupted and started a forest fire in 1843. You can still see the burned snags of the cedar trees that once dominated the area. From north to south, the trail contours the eastern shoreline of Baker Lake, offering glimpses of Mt. Baker. All along the trail spot western trillium, twinflower, foamflower, coralroot and twisted Stalk.

The Baker Lake Classic 25k is a 15.6 mile trail run through the Mt Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest and was added because of high demand to run a point to point route from the north end of the lake to the south end of the lake.
