Mary Rand’s “All Right Here”

All is well that ends well, especially in Mt. Baker.

Words By Caleb Kamins Full-Length

"You are who you surround yourself with" is a timeless adage that probably leaves a sour taste in your mouth from high school (middle school if you had an older brother). Maybe the saying brings you back to the first time your parents caught you smoking weed, or, better yet, that one year you failed algebra two semesters in a row. Now, we're not your parents, but we are here to reiterate that that saying is true—and even applies to your environment.

In the case of snowboarding, this saying rings especially true, as certain mountain towns have become synonymous with their respective terrains. Hard to disagree when places like Trollhaugen are breeding the next Benny Milam, year after year. Anyway, all of this rambling is directed at one community in particular: Mt. Baker. This northernmost resort is a breeding ground for backcountry riding, and when you dial in on Mary Rand's transition into this coveted community, it almost makes too much sense.

All Right Here is the perfect nod to Mary's new home in Northern Washington, where the once product of the East Coast streets humbly turns into a PNW local. We may be overstepping here, but after rewatching her Listen to the Eyes part from a few years back, Mary definitely seems at home.
