Mount Baker, seen here from the dairy farms of Whatcom County to the west, is a prominent landmark visible from much of NW Washington and SW British Columbia. Nineteenth-century eruptions were visible from as far away as Victoria Island across the Puget Sound. Photo by Lee Siebert, 1972 (Smithsonian Institution).
