The Summit at Snoqualmie

It is very nice local ski place. Alpental is very challenging course. West is family love. Central is for everyone. East is hidden place.

I know many people have complained about parking, but we had a good experience. We arrived around about an hour before the lifts opened and got right into a paid parking at West. Do I love that I have to pay for parking? No. But we didn’t have the issues many others have had. I do agree more parking attendants would create a more seamless process. My disappointment lies in the lack of trail signs. Normally the trails are well labeled, particularly at trail junctions and even with “easiest way down” alerts. Due to lack of signage, we ended up on an ungroomed black diamond. The poor conditions of this trail resulted in having to remove my skis and hike down. Many others seemed surprised as well and were falling and sliding putting others at risk. Had the trail junction been marked, we likely never would have been in that position. As any other ski resort close to a big city, it’s crowded with long lift lines but most people were patient. It does seem that there may be some lift problems with frequently stopped lifts and even lifts that were shut down for the day. Lodges seemed ill prepared for the volume of people with popular items running out even before noon. All and all we enjoyed our day and will return to Snoqualmie. Hoping they take reviews to heart and continue to improve guest experience.

We went up 01/19/2026 and rented at the West summit. The process to rent gear was seamless and service was great. I would rent from there again. It's convenient and affordable. Only 2 chair lifts were open probably due to lack of snow fall and weather conditions but at one point there was technical issues and ski patrol communicated it would take some time and to go to the other chair lift. We started making our way and the chair started moving again. Other than that we had a good time. Snoqualmie snow is what it is but wished more than 2 lifts were open.

The entire day per our son Corbin, "BEST DAY EVERRRR!" Kids 5+ yr old lessons 2.5 hrs = great mom and dad ski and enjoy time, magic carpet and riding the lifts = "yeahhh and we're so high!" Ski patrol courtesy toboggan ride = "faster please but not too fast!!" And a huge!! Chocolate bar and teddy bear! While he warmed up and 'recovered' (lol he was totally fine, it looked worse than it was, if I only had X-ray vision) in the Bump House. Then french fries (don't forget ketchup!) and a hamburger and to top it off with a cocoa w/ whip cream and rainbow sprinkles! Lol and funny conversations with so many other parents about the epic endeavor it is to just arrive to the mountain with all necessary gear in tow and the quantity of bribery and Kleenex included in the day. So happy to work for the Summit and be able to take advantage of all the fun this year.
