Mt Baker, USA

Freeriding

Freeriders wanting to explore the amazing off-piste should seek the advice of a local rider; it's the only way to locate the best stuff, of which there are heaps. The amazing amount of unrestricted freeriding terrain is truly awesome and will keep you riding happily forever and a day. For the less adventurous, the blue off Number 8 chair in the Shuskan area is well worth a ride, offering piste-loving freeriders the opportunity to shine at speed.

Freestylers

Freestylers will love the whole area, particularly the natural halfpipe that runs from the top of the two Shuskan chair lifts. This is where the Banked Slalom is held and, apart from beginners, is a must for all freestylers and freeriders. The run drops down a long winding gully and is totally magic. There are 2 small terrain parks off chair 8 and 3 that feature a few kickers and rails.

Pistes

Pistes. Riders who only want to pose whilst laying fast tracks on perfectly prepared piste should stay away. Mt Baker is not a motherly resort it’s a wild freeride place, although there are some runs to blast down. It’s best to buckle in with soft boots and go freeriding which this place is meant for,

Beginners

Beginners won't be disappointed with Mt Baker, with the option of learning on plenty of easy runs that are spread out around the area, the best being located on Shuskan. The local snowboard school is well established and offers a number of teaching programmes for all levels, with an emphasis on general freeriding.
