MT Baker - North Ridge | a Top 50 Classic Alpine Ice Route in the North Cascades. 2023 - Spring

The Mt. Baker North Ridge is a classic alpine ice route in the North Cascades. It's one of the 50 classic climbs in North America and is considered one of the top five classic ice routes in the lower 48 states. The route is 11.8 miles round trip from the trailhead to the summit. It has an elevation gain of 7,300 feet. The round trip duration from camp to summit is 8–10 hours, however it took us around 16 hours due to crevasse fields opening up and extending the route.

Coleman Deming Glacier / Northside Approach Time to Camp: 3-4 hours Distance: 2.5 miles, 2500 ft. gain Trailhead: Heliotrope Ridge, 3500 ft. High Camp: 6000 ft. Camp to Summit: 5-6 hours, 4800 ft. gain Total Elevation Gain: 7,300 feet High Camp to Summit to High Camp: 6 miles round trip, 9+ hours Pack Weight: 40-45 lbs. trailhead to high camp, 20-25 lbs. high camp to summit Trail synopsis: From the parking area, a well-maintained trail gains elevation quickly making this approach slightly shorter than the southside approach. After crossing Kulshan Creek at 2 miles (4500 feet), we break out of the trees, cross another stream at 5400 feet, then climb a final steep moraine into Hogsback Camp. Camp sites are scattered between 6000 and 6200 feet along the edge of the Coleman Glacier. Exact elevation and location will vary depending on water sources and other climbing parties.
