Stevens and Xtal running out of parking before 10 this morning. My guess is most folks found their way to the mountains despite lessons being canceled.

Crystal was great today. Northway and Throne open by around 10:30, Southback by noon.
Parking and lift lines were disaster. But it was worth it.

With the expansive growth of Seattle, we desperately need another major ski area somewhere within a 2 hour drive from Seattle... And more expansion of existing hills too.

White pass is getting so crowded it really puts a damper on fun levels for weekend skiing. When there is no where to sit and have a beer inside, I get irritated. Oh, and the lift lines are getting stupid.

Well, let's enjoy it while we got it! Modern ski areas should be designed around 4 season recreation anyways. DH and XC Bike park, hiking access, etc. So if in the future snow is spotty, you can still go up and have a good time.
Yes. But the enviro groups will fight any kind of new development like it's an open pit strip mine. Even if the resort is designed to be as natural and friendly as possible with limited hard edges to runs, small base area foot print, etc. Even if it's just the expansion inside current resort permit areas. It's nutty.
Meanwhile Weyerhaeuser is clear cutting the entire highway 2 corridor from Henry Creek all the way to Wenatchee and no one bats an eye.

I'd love a ski area that you could hop on a gondola to a ridgeline that would allow you to hike for miles. Like Europe.
I often lustfully imagine this area near Lake Wenatchee on Crook Mountain. (It's not in the wilderness...) https://goo.gl/maps/3AaY1v9QKfR2

Exactly and it's bullshit and everyone knows it.
The only reason the enviro groups attack ski area dev is because the ski area devs don't have as much money as the mining and logging industries who also pay off the enviro groups. Fucking racket.
I support wilderness areas and use specific stuff, but ski areas are great for peoples mental and physical health.
Then again, skiing is sinning and extraction industries are gods work.Merde De Glace On the Freak When Ski
