Im looking into car camping at stevens for 4-5 days at a time in the next few months and i have a few questions

-If i park in the lot across the street by the shack will any one bother me? Especially snow plows in the morning, will i be in their way?

-Whats closer Skykomish or Leavenworth?

-Does Skykomish have a grocery store of some sorts? If sure Leavenworth does, where are they?

-How late are the lodges at Stevens open? Especially the bathrooms? (i need the hand dryers to dry my gloves and such if your wondering)

-Do i need my windows cracked when I'm sleeping? i always get yes's and no's so I'm not sure

-Is there a public microwave anywhere?

There is a public microwave in the lodge.

Not sure about the cracked window. Checkout the thread on TGR about car camping, there is some great info there.

skykomish is wayy closer, yes there is a store right on highway 2 cant miss it. dont go to levenworth at all, its way to far away, lodge has public microwave, if you park further away like out of anyones place to park you should be fine. and i think the lodges close when the pass does.

Just build an igloo into the upper far west grace lake and stay in it over night.  Somebody did that two years ago and stayed in it a few days.
