- Baring Mountain (or Mount Baring), is a peak in the central part of the Cascade Range of Washington, United States. It lies about 2 metres (0.0020 km) northeast of the Skykomish River and US Highway 2, at the western edge of the Cascades in the Mount Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest. It is about 6 miles (9.7 km) east of Mount Index and Barclay Lake at its base is accessible via Forest Road 6024 and a 2.2-mile (3.5 km) hike. Baring Mountain was previously known as Mount Index before being renamed in 1917. The peak currently named Mount Index was known as West Index Mountain until that time. Like Mount Index, Baring Mountain is a dramatic peak, because of its steep rise above low footings, the Skykomish River is at an elevation of only 760 feet (230 m), and particularly because of its large, sheer Northeast Face, which drops about 750 m (2,460 ft) in only 250 m (820 ft) and drops another 1,250 ft (380 m) at a lower angle to Barclay Lake. The first recorded ascent of Baring Mountain was on July 28, 1897 by John Charlton and Albert H. Sylvester. However given the nontechnical nature of the easiest ascent route a much earlier Native American ascent is possible. The standard route on the mountain is the Northwest Ridge Route, involving hiking (off-trail, some of it through brush) and a small amount of scrambling at the top. The northeast aspect of the peak is home to several routes of great length and technical difficulty (up to Grade VI, 5.12b). The northeast face was first climbed on July 13, 1960 by Ed Cooper and Don Gordon Claunch. The first BASE jump off Baring Mountain was done by Todd Higley and Josh Whipple, in August 2001. Michael McMurtrey, of Seattle, was the first to jump from Baring using a wingsuit, in June 2004.

- Mount Baring, oder Baring Mountain, ist ein Berg in der Kaskadenkette im US-Bundesstaat Washington. Er liegt etwa drei Kilometer nordöstlich des Skykomish River, welcher bei Everett in den Puget Sound mündet. Das Gebiet um Mount Baring ist Teil des Mount Baker-Snoqualmie National Forests. Wie der nahegelegene Mount Index ist auch Mount Baring ein aufgrund steiler Hänge sehr markanter Berg. Der Fluss Skykomish fließt auf einer Höhe von nur etwa 232 Metern über dem Meeresspiegel und damit weit unter dem Berg. Der weniger als ein Kilometer nordöstlich des Gipfels gelegene Barclay Lake liegt auf einer Höhe von 1128 Metern. Damit hat Mount Baring eine Schartenhöhe von zirka 740 Metern. Die erste aufgezeichnete Besteigung wurde am 28. Juli 1897 von John Charlton und durchgeführt. Dass Amerikanische Ureinwohner einen der einfacheren Wege zum Gipfel bereits lange Zeit vor der bekannten Erstbesteigung nahmen, gilt als wahrscheinlich. Der Normalweg führt über den Nordwestgrat. Er verläuft abseits von Pfaden, teilweise durch Gehölz, und erfordert in Gipfelnähe vermehrtes Klettern. Einige Kletterwege an der Nordostseite des Gipfelbereichs sind außerordentlich lang und erreichen stellenweise den Grad V der Schwierigkeit. (de)
