dan4060Alpental is also supposed to have some great terrain. Washington has some great mountains. They don't tend to be well known. I believe Mt. Baker is a bit more of a drive from Seattle than the others, but it is sick and gets a ton of snow.
CaseyWell if you consider a 45 minute lift line on a Tuesday unknown than Alpental is your secret jam. But shhh keep your spots low-key.

dan4060I've had people tell me Alpental has better terrain than Park City.
PharoahJust drive to Whistler..
Are any of the mountains in Washington "world class"?
PharoahI love washington, but the skiing just seems so mediocre.
PharoahI wish Washington had just one big resort. I love washington, but the skiing just seems so mediocre.
Yes there are some gnarly lines some places, and Baker looks fun. But the overall vertical, acreage, and just the experience of the ski mountains they have set up, feels smaller.
They have the big mountains, just not the infrastructure around them.
