Answer:

Mt. Baker has had many names over the centuries. Before the arrival of Europeans it was known as Koma Kulshan, meaning "Great White Watcher." The first European name for the volcano comes from the maps of Spanish mariner Gonzalo Lopez de Haro who labeled the mountain "La Gran Montana del Carmelo" in 1790.
