Provenance

In September 2001, president Márjan Eicher transferred the bulk of the Mt. Baker “Hiking” Club collection to the CPNWS on behalf of the Mount Baker Club. Additional maps, newsletters and outing materials were donated from the records of long-time Club members Chuck and Anita McCullough in 2002. In May 2004, Barbara J. Danielson donated  membership records, photographs and film generated by her aunt and uncle Hazel and Carl Priest (also long-term club members). 

Processing Information

Ruth Steele processed the Mt. Baker Club Records for the Center for Pacific Northwest Studies in June 2002. Amber Raney merged additional materials into the collection in 2003. In 2004, Center staff also integrated materials donated by Barbara J. Danielson.

Separated Material

The first Mt. Baker scrapbook, compiled by Charles Finley Easton, was donated to the Whatcom Museum of History and Art in 1946.  The original scrapbook is now held in the Museum’s Photo Archives and is also available on CD Rom.
