Summit at Snoqualmie

Located just an hour from downtown Seattle, the Summit at Snoqualmie is a quality ski resort, made even better by some cool new additions. Chris Gunnarson and his company, Snowpark Technologies, have added some flavor to our terrain parks. The Beach, our new hillside plaza will shower you with that comforting Summit at Snoqualmie atmosphere. And our brand new guest lodge will get you whatever you need whenever you need it. Plus we've still got all the other good stuff, like the high-speed quads and the night skiing. The Summit has six base areas and offers the most night skiing/riding acreage in the United States. This area is considered one of the best areas to learn how to ski or ride.
