When we stopped in Glacier at <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.getsconed.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Wake &#8216;n Bakery<\/a> for coffee and a snack, it was a sunny, breezy day. By the time we reached the Mt. Baker Ski area, we were greeted by cloud, wind and a sprinkle of snowflakes. We laughed, shivered, bundled up and meandered up the Bagley Lake and Wild Goose trails to the Ann Lake Trail. The trail descended through meadows, following Swift Creek. When we reached the junction of the Lake Ann and Pacific Northwest Trails, it was too late to continue to the lake. As turned out, we hiked back through the Bagley Lakes area alone and in the dark. It was peaceful.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class='photonic-flickr-stream photonic-stream ' id='photonic-flickr-stream-1'>\n\n\t<div id='photonic-flickr-stream-1-container' class='title-display-tooltip photonic-level-1-container sizes-present photonic-random-layout photonic-thumbnail-effect-none' data-photonic-platform=\"flickr\" data-photonic-gallery-columns=\"auto\" data-photonic-query=\"columns=auto&amp;layout=random&amp;display=local&amp;popup=hide&amp;filter=&amp;filter_type=include&amp;more=&amp;panel=&amp;custom_classes=&amp;alignment=&amp;photo_layout=square&amp;caption=none&amp;thumb_size=s&amp;main_size=o&amp;tile_size=n&amp;video_size=Video Original&amp;privacy_filter=&amp;count=500&amp;page=1&amp;paginate=&amp;collections_display=expanded&amp;user_id=83665155@N00&amp;collection_id=&amp;photoset_id=72177720317614518&amp;gallery_id=&amp;photo_id=&amp;media=all&amp;type=flickr&amp;style=default&amp;view=photosets&amp;headers=none&amp;iterate_level_3=1&amp;per_page=500&amp;photo_count=500&amp;overlay_size=s&amp;overlay_video_size=Video Original\" style='--tile-min-height: 200px'>\n\t\t<figure class='photonic-level-1 photonic-thumb' style='--dw: 320;--dh: 240'>\n\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/53844188665_e514feaa0f_o.jpg' title='' rel='lightbox-photonic-flickr-stream-1' class='photonic-lb photonic-lightgallery lightgallery' target=\"_blank\" data-photonic-media-type=\"image\" data-download-url=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/53844188665_e514feaa0f_o_d.jpg\" data-sub-html=\"&lt;a href=&#039;https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/83665155@N00\/53844188665\/in\/set-72177720317614518&#039;
