Early season backpack at Baker Laker Lake (one night)

Let's greet the summer doing this easy-ish backpack on the Baker Lake trail, ideally camping at Maple Grove. [Baker Lake - Maple Grove — Washington Trails Association (wta.org)](https://www.wta.org/go-hiking/hikes/baker-lake-maple-grove) 8 mi roundtrip, 500 feet elevation gain.

There we can enjoy great views of the lake and surrounding mountains, and share a potluck dinner. We'll also have a pre-trip meetup if you want to ask questions or get to know your fellow backpackers.

We'll meet at the Lincoln Creek Park and Ride in Bellingham at 7 am and figure out ridesharing from there.
