Get ready for an epic Skiing and Snowboarding season this year. At least things are starting out right. Mt Baker Ski Area is set to have one of its earliest openings on record with a base of 64 inches and more snow expected this Friday. Opening day is TODAY, Thurs, Nov 12th 2009. And there is more good news! Introducing The Baker Bus, run by Cascade Adventures, a fun, safe alternative transportation option that is affordable and convenient. The Baker Bus is running daily from Kendall and you can catch it from Bellingham on weekends and holidays. There are 15 spots available and seating is first come first served. Rides from Bellingham are only $10 round trip. They also offer passes and punch cards at a cheaper rate. Check out their website at http://www.wildandscenic.com/bakerbus.html to see their schedule, rates, pick up times and pick up areas.
We here at Boundary Bay Brewery really love the idea of the Baker Bus. Many of our employees love to ride at Baker. Providing alternative mass transit to the ski area makes sense. It’s healthier for our environment and alleviates the heavy traffic going up and down the road, making it a safer journey for other vehicles.
Cascade Adventures hopes that increased ridership and sponsorship from local & like-minded business can help expand their services to a bigger bus running on bio-diesel. If you’d like to help or become a sponsor please call 360-599-3115 or email hoboexpeditions@hotmail.com for more information.
