Skagit County

Skagit County, one removed from the Canadian border in Northwest Washington, rises from sea level in the west to the summit of the Cascades in the east. Its principal cities on Interstate 5 are Mount Vernon, the county seat, and Burlington. Anacortes on Fidalgo Island is the gateway to Alaska for a variety of shippers and the ferry terminus for trips to the San Juan Islands and Vancouver Island.

The northern part of the North Cascades Loop is Highway 20, starting at Anacortes and passing through Sedro-Woolley before crossing the Cascades into Eastern Washington.
