MountBaker
Mount Baker , also known as Koma Kulshan or simply Kulshan, is a 10,781 ft (3,286 m) active glacier-covered andesitic stratovolcano in the Cascade Volcanic Arc and the North Cascades of Washington in the United States. Mount Baker has the second-most thermally active crater in the Cascade Range after Mount St. Helens. About 30 miles (48 km) due east of the city of Bellingham, Whatcom County, Mount Baker is the youngest volcano in the Mount Baker volcanic field.[5] While volcanism has persisted here for some 1.5 million years, the current volcanic cone is likely no more than 140,000 years old, and possibly no older than 80–90,000 years. Older volcanic edifices have mostly eroded away due to glaciation.

Fred.W. Symmes Chapel
The land was donated by Fred W. Symmes in 1912 for the boys and girls who attended the summer camps. However, World War I caused low enrollment which led to the camp being shutdown. After years of preparing the camp to operate once again, it reopened the summer of 1925. Five log cabins and nine tents housed the campers and one dining hall fed them in shifts. It wasn't until 1941 that the current chapel was constructed. For over 100 hundred years thousands of people have been enjoying the land donated by Fred Symmes, just as he intended.

Whittier
Whittier is a city at the head of the Passage Canal in the U.S. state of Alaska, about 58 miles (93 km) southeast of Anchorage. The city is within the Chugach Census Area, one of the two entities established in 2019 when the former Valdez–Cordova Census Area was dissolved. It is also a port for the Alaska Marine Highway. The population was 272 at the 2020 census, having increased from 220 in 2010. Whittier is notable for its extremely wet climate – the town receives 197 in (5,000 mm) of precipitation per year on average – as well as for the fact that almost all of its residents live in the Begich Towers Condominium, earning it the nickname of a "town under one roof".
