Join us for the Return to Artist Point Tour on Saturday, September 20th
Registration opens on Sat, Aug 23rd at 9 AM (not noon). Register early by clicking the "Register Here" box to avoid being placed on the waiting list or not being able to register if the tour sells out early!
Join your fellow PNWR members for a scenic drive through Snohomish, Skagit and Whatcom counties. Starting from the Twin Lakes Best Buy parking lot (with Starbucks and other options nearby), we'll be taking back roads zig-zagging our way northward all the way until you can see Canada out your window, then snake back to climb the mountain to Artist Point. Once there, take some time to soak in the stunning views of Mt Baker and Mt Shuksan (weather permitting), socialize, and take photos of Porsches with dramatic backdrops. But don’t wander too far away. After visiting Artist Point, we’ll circle back down to the town of Glacier for your choice of pizza at Chair 9 or BBQ at Gunner’s.
