Mission Ridge
35 miles away
What makes Mission Ridge Ski & Board Resort different from other ski areas in Washington?
It could be our combination of 300 days of sunshine annually, dry snow and wide open spaces. Located just 12 miles south of Wenatchee, Mission Ridge has more than 36 designated runs spread over 2,000 acres of trails, chutes, groomers, and bowls with a thrilling 2,250 vertical drop. It could be our snowmaking system that covers 66 acres top to bottom fueled by an 18 million gallon reservoir guaranteeing an early opening every year. It could be the high speed quad ride that takes you to the summit where you see panoramic views of Mt. Rainier, Mt. Stuart, Mt. Adams, The Enchantments and the majestic Columbia River winding through the valley below.
Come for an exceptional winter mountain experience that could last you a lifetime. ...

White Pass
59 miles away
...ay is over.
What really makes it special though, is the friendly, family-oriented atmosphere. It's what makes White Pass a ski and snowboard paradise.
The White Pass experience starts with a bountiful snowfall (350'' in an average season) and with the highest base elevation on the crest of the Washington Cascades.
The resort strikes a perfect balance between pulse quickening steeps, wide open cruisers and gentle learning areas with 33 percent of the terrain geared toward experts, 43 percent toward intermediates and 24 percent toward beginners.
Nothing gets you to the top faster than the Great White Express, Washington's only Doppelmayr high-speed detachable quad. Great White can take you from the base to the summit in five minutes.
White Pass is recognized as one of the greatest mountains to ride in the Northwest. Natural quarter-pipes, kickers, drops, cornices and chutes challenge even the most experienced boarder. It offers a half-pipe.
It's got one of the most scenic and well-maintained cross-country areas in the Northwest. The 18 km of double track, which allows...

Summit at Snoqualmie
72 miles away
3 PHOTOS
From the steep and deep to the high-speed buffed-out cruisers, from our gentle learning areas to our benchmark parks and pipe, diversity is a way of life around here. With four unique base areas and less than an hour from Seattle on Interstate 90, no other resort in the country offers so much variety with this much convenience. Consider it a buffet for the outdoor enthusiast!
For the third year in a row, we stayed open longer than any other resort in the state, this season through Memorial Day. What can we say? We love spring skiing as much as you do!
So if you're looking for a true escape this winter, look no further than The Summit.
Just around the corner...

Stevens Pass
75 miles away
1 PHOTO
Seventy years ago, Bruce Kehr and Don Adams took a Ford V-8 engine, some wheels and a rope, combined with a little imagination and their passion, and started Stevens Pass. Stevens has grown from its humble beginnings to one of the Northwest's premier resorts offering 10 lifts, over 1,125 acres of skiable terrain, 37 primary runs, and at the heart-an intimate base village surrounded by our three day lodges. Like our founders, the resort's team members are passionate about the sport, their environment and the service they provide....
Best place we have stayed for skiing is Dirty Face Lodge. 20 minutes from the lifts and sleeps about 30!!...
Fun place to ski....
Wow what a mountain! It's perfect! I love the tougher runs at Stephens Pass, no matter how good you are you'll still get snow in your underwear (I mean that in a good way), you never outgrow this mountain. It's perfect for a crazy guy like me, but I see a lot of normal people here too....
