I recently went up to the Mt. Baker area with some friends to hike Ptarmigan Ridge. We set off from Artist's Point at about 16:00, and hiked out about 4 miles on the Ptarmigan Ridge trail. At about 19:00 we climbed up a hill to watch the sun set on Shuksan, and turned around when the temperature started to drop. We took a few breaks on the way back to look at the milky way, and spotted some meteors along the trail and back at Artist's Point. Unedited pictures are below:
