Description, Attractions & Considerations:
A very popular mid to late summer hike, the Damfino Lakes Trail gains 1100 feet of elevation to reach Excelsior Pass in 3 miles. At Excelsior Pass is a junction with High Divide Trail #630, which hikers may use to explore the high country east along Excelsior Ridge (High Divide) to Welcome Pass.
The trail starts in an old clearcut, quickly entering mature forest. In 0.7 miles a junction is encountered. The left fork is Canyon Ridge Trail #689, which also connects to Boundary Way Trail #688. Take the right fork and reach Damfino Lakes in another 0.1 mile. Tiny Damfino Lakes are skirted by a puncheon bridge walkway. The lakes are surrounded by blueberry bushes, which turn a blazing scarlet in autumn. The trail reenters forest and climbs uphill, breaking out of the forest into an expansive meadow about 1.5 miles past Damfino Lakes. Excelsior Pass can be seen 0.5 miles above. Walk through extraordinary wildflowers in July and August, or wonderful fall color in September and October. Bearpaw Mountain is the prominent peak to the west. Once Excelsior Pass is reached, the white mass of Mt. Baker looms in the hiker's view. Glacier draped Mt. Shuksan and the Canadian Border Peaks are also visible. There are possible campsites below the pass and along Excelsior Ridge, but water is scarce once snowfields disappear in late summer.
The south facing Excelsior Pass and Welcome Pass trails, which access Excelsior Ridge, also known as High Divide, are some of the first in the area to melt out, making this a good early to midsummer hike.
The High Divide Trail starts at the Excelsior Pass Trailhead on the Mount Baker Highway (SR 542) and climbs steadily up a timbered slope, with evidence of old forest fires visible for the first 2 miles. In 4 miles the trail breaks out above timberline and into heavy brush. At 4.5 miles the trail reaches the meadows of Excelsior Pass, with its outstanding views of Mt. Baker and the Nooksack Valley The trail follows the crest of High Divide east from Excelsior Pass to Welcome Pass, offering miles of meadows with supreme views. Alpine wildflowers grow in profusion here in mid to late summer. Autumn brings brilliant color. Though camping is plentiful, plan to carry water, as the ridge is dry once the snow melts. From Welcome Pass the trail takes very steep switchbacks downhill through old growth forest to connect to Forest Road 3060.
Trail #630 enters the Mt. Baker Wilderness. In keeping with wilderness regulations, party size is limited to 12. No fires are allowed.
The trail is open to stock use from August 1 to November 1 and open to llamas all year long.
A Northwest Forest Pass is required for each vehicle parked at the trailhead.
