Mt Baker, Wa

Hey, Happy Thanksgiving.

Just wondering if any of the Washington folks on here know if Mt Baker ski area has any RV parking. Their web site doesn't say and it's the only ski area fully open in Washington.
Thanks
  • Parking lot? USFS campgrounds are closed, at least the ones I know of: Silver Fir and Douglas Fir. I used to ski up there when there was just one chair. Lots of changes since.
  • Ok, I did call and the office is closed today, but thanks for the remark. I was trying to figure out which of two ski areas to go to tomorrow, Stevens which charges $30 for no hookups or Mt Baker which their web site gives no info. Leaving early in the morning.

    Do you allow RVs to park overnight at the ski area?
    Overnight parking of self contained RVs and campers is permitted in our parking lots only in specific areas. These are: the southeast corner of the Heather Meadows parking lots, and the back (northeast) corner of the White Salmon lot. Please note that the White Salmon parking lot gate is locked from 5 PM until 6 AM every day.
  • Stevens allows truck campers in the regular lot and I have spent nights there with no cost.
  • Thanks Buzzcut1. I didn't look in that spot for the answer. Off to Mt Baker, it has more snow.

    I did call their office at 0930 and still no answer.

    Again thanks much.
  • You cant park in the main lot, have to go up the hill to the other lot and you can park there. Done it many times.
