Glacier creek is open. Canyon creek is closed due to the road.

Glacier creek is close to Bellingham, can be real fun with the amount of snow that we've had, although it is fairly small and can be real easy to end up out of bounds, just sayin'.

Glacier creek is "close to Bellingham", not "CLOSED" East on SR542 go thru town of Glacier turn right on 39 head up from there.

I've been there once. The area that is legal to ride in is very, very small.

I really would suggest going elseware if you plan on riding for the day.

Apparently, we went over the boundary when I was up there and were spotted by a member here who was flying his plane. I didn't realize it at the time as I was "following a local". Won't make that mistake again.

I won't waste my gas going back when other places are as close as they are.
