Fantastic local ski resort with a deceptive amount of skiable terrain. Everything from family-friendly groomers through alpine conifers to hike-out side- and backcountry terrain with plenty of space for fresh tracks. In-bounds you can find hidden stashes in the glades between marked runs, and gorgeous groomers between storms, thanks to a diligent cat crew.

Excellent mountain, great varied terrain for all skill levels and some great tree runs. The staff are great but the lodging/dining/parking situations are not great. Best ski resort in Washington, all things considered. The mountain itself is worth the hassle of parking etc
