I bought an IKON pass this year. Plan to use it at Crystal, Bachelor, trips booked for Arapaho Basin, and maybe Snoqualmie. I also hate money and bought a local pass for Stevens.
Highly recommend for skiers/snowboarders in the Puget Sound area to subscribe to an email list by "The Powder Poobah". He is a local meteorologist and ski aficionado. He tracks the weather patterns and is far more reliable for ski forcast than the local news and resorts can hope to be. Legit the only regular email that hits my inbox that I read religiously.
You posted more about EC than anything in your life, my fren. YWFMS. -

Some call Crystal a top 10 North American Ski Resort. Some do that.BleachedAnusDawg said:
Yeah, pretty sure. From where I'm at it's about the same drive to there or Crystal. Crystal obviously has far more in terms of runs, but I would guess that Hurricane Ridge is probably light traffic.YellowSnow said:
Just a t-bar right? No chairs?BleachedAnusDawg said:Anyone ever gone to Hurricane Ridge on the peninsula?
That said, I loved Crystal (pre Ikon debacle) and it's a great hill given proximity to Seattle. -

I didn't say I called it that. And the more I think of it, the list I saw might have been just the US.YellowSnow said:
