Yellow Aster Butte Trail

Find supreme wildflower gardens and a high-country plateau speckled with shimmering tarns—but that’s not all. Spectacular alpine vistas abound too—of Baker, Shuksan, and all those rugged and craggy peaks straddling the 49th parallel. Yellow Aster Butte may be a misnomer (those yellow-petaled delights are actually daisies), but you definitely don’t want to miss hiking here.
