+ About this map

Mount Baker rises 10,781 feet in the North Cascades, the most heavily glaciated peak in the range after Rainier and the northernmost volcano in the contiguous United States. It holds the world record for measured snowfall in a single season: 1,140 inches during the winter of 1998-99. The mountain is an active stratovolcano; Sherman Crater near the summit still vents steam and sulfurous gas, a reminder that the geology here is ongoing.

This map captures the ice-carved symmetry of Baker’s cone. The contour lines reveal the tight radial pattern of a peak shaped equally by volcanic buildup and glacial erosion. The major glaciers (Coleman, Deming, Easton, and Boulder) appear as wide valleys where the contour lines bow outward, interrupted by the crevasse fields and icefalls that define the mountain’s upper reaches.
