Vancouver looking at Mount Baker ...Washington State USA

Artist: Lucindawind

The pic was taken at 4000 feet up a mountain ….Mt. Baker volcano rises 3300 meters ( 10826.7 Feet ) above Vancouver. Any future eruption of Mt. Baker represents a potential hazard to Vancouver and the Lower Mainland area.

Mt. Baker has been constructed by outpourings of lava and volcanic ash. A record of these past eruptions lies within the volcanic layers exposed at Sherman Crater near the summit of Mt. Baker. Sherman Crater is the site of small eruptions during the 1800s and discharges of volcanic gas during the 1970s. Mt. Baker continues to steam today.
