Yes, that area is great. Very accessible nice views too for people who both want to or don't want to hike. We rented an Air B&B in Glacier,. WA one year with 3 other families and spent 3 days around the Heather Meadows area hiking and sightseeing. Great way to spend a long weekend.

gnilma's Hiking Adventures 61 - Ptarmigan Ridge

I used to spend a lot of time up on baker. All the hikes that take off from artist point are so great. You are up above the tree line and the views are great. 

Haven't been back there in quite a while, but I do enjoy hiking vicariously through your posts!
