Overall impression of the riding: Baker is the ultimate freeride mountain. The terrain and especially the powder are the best! The just started a terrain park in the 2000 season, it aint bad. The natural pipe is low quality, but hey, its natural. Its not really for the freestyler, only excellent for the freerider.
