I’m planning a ski trip to Mt Baker at the end of January. We were thinking about staying in Glacier and drive to Mt Baker in the mornings. Is the drive along that highway super difficult that time of year? I’m obviously planning on getting an AWD vehicle. Just don’t know what to expect.

Just make sure you have chains in the car and you're fine. The weather is really unpredictable, could be completely dry road or could be 3 feet of snow. They are pretty good about plowing but we get warm snow here often which gets mashed into the slickest sheet of ice. Completely doable drive but just be prepared.
