This majestic peak, located in Washington state, is renowned for its ice-clad summit and active geothermal system, notably the Sherman Crater. Named after Joseph Baker, who discovered it in 1792 during an expedition with George Vancouver, Mount Baker has a rich history and remains a symbol of natural beauty and adventure.
The Mt. Baker Bench Mark Medallion’s felt backing ensures it can be displayed without causing damage to surfaces, and it comes with a soft fleece pouch for added protection. Packaged in a clear vinyl box, it makes for a stunning gift presentation.
Mount Baker is not just a mountain but a part of two significant congressionally designated areas: the Mt. Baker Wilderness and the Mt. Baker National Recreation Area. Its glaciers, volcanic craters, and the history of the Mount Baker Club's efforts in conservation and outdoor activities enrich its story.
