All the lifts keep stopping so there were really long waits. Took about 45 minutes to find parking. The outside eating area with fire pit was very nice.

The Summit at Snoqualmie was my home resort for 5 years, and I absolutely loved skiing there. There is definitely something for everybody ranging from the West Summit for beginners, all the way to Alpental for advanced. There are multiple lodges within the ski resort that have great food/drinks at a reasonable price. Pro tip- Be sure to check out the back face of the East Summit for great powder and untracked runs. Not many people know about it, but now you do! 10/10 reccomend The Summit at Snoqualmie for your ski/board trip!

Closest to Seattle and cheaper than many in area, a great beginner area and good rental options. Good city escape but very busy! Night skiing is great if on a budget
