North Ridge: Mount Baker 3 Day

Contact Directly for Private Trips

The North Ridge is one of the North Cascades classic moderate alpine climbs. Ascending from camp across the Coleman and Roosevelt Glaciers we reach the toe of the North Ridge and climb moderate to steep snow on our way to the upper headwall. Here we climb several ice pitches. After this more steep snow ascends towards the summit plateau. 

Group size and rate is based upon 2 guests.
