GOLDEN EGG #1: 1 Golden Egg with a 2025-26 Mt. Baker Season Pass will be hidden on the mountain in the Main Hunt area! Put together the clues to find the Golden Egg and win big!
CLUES: One (1) Golden Egg will be hidden in a place that can only be found by putting together clues that we provide (unless you’re incredibly lucky and happen to stumble across a hiding spot).

• Things that might (or might not) be helpful in using the clues to figure out the location of a Golden Egg: current trail map, google, transceiver, shovel

• The first clues will be posted on the online snow report at 7:00 a.m. for the locations of the eggs.

• If the golden egg is not found by 10:00 a.m., we will begin posting clues every hour or half hour on white boards posted at the bottom of chairs 5, 7 & 8 and in front of the Raven Hut.

542 IRIDESCENT EGGS: There is a second Golden Egg up for grabs in one of the Baker’s Dozen Easter Baskets! We are giving away 13 baskets filled with various awesome goodies … check the prize list below!
