White Pass Ski Area

I’ve been to many ski resorts across the US, and I can say, this is better than nothing. As a snowboarder I bottomed out many times, which sucks! That means the shape of the runs does not give you the downhill energy to keep you moving during all parts. I’ve never had this problem around the US. The lifts and lodge are great, they have kids lessons and a tubing area down the road. If you don’t get there early you will be in for a serious walk. Like could be a mile! So get there early for parking if anything. Customer service is great, lift ticket prices were under $100, but not by much. The run signs on the mountain need some serious upgrading. Signs are hard to see their names if you can find them at all. Even with a slope map, it was hard to tell where you were on the mountain. Overall fairly low quality mountain if you’ve been around ski resorts. But.. when there are not many options it will do. Beware of weather conditions.

We had such a great time at White Pass Ski Resort! It’s absolutely perfect for kids — manageable terrain, a relaxed vibe, and a really welcoming atmosphere that makes it feel safe and fun for the whole family. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, which made the experience even better. If you’re looking for a family-friendly mountain with great snow and kind people, White Pass is a win. We’ll definitely be back! ❄️🎿

Really love this ski area. Great vibe and the scenery is epic - Mt Rainier right in your face. The snow is great even when it's thin elsewhere. They are on the Indy Pass and restrict the number of tickets each day so it never feels crowded. This is how it should be done, so reserve ahead of time and enjoy the vibe. I have been there for epic powder days and for sunny bluebird hard-pack days and loved both. Check out that mid mountain yurt for a beer and convo!

This mountain is hands down my favorite place to ride. It’s always a guaranteed good time! fun with a laid-back atmosphere that feels real, not pretentious. Staff are amazing, always friendly, helpful, and genuinely love what they do, which makes the whole experience even better. What really sets this resort apart is the crowd (or lack of one). Normally no overcrowded choas and it feels like home the moment you arrive. Affordable in comparison to most resorts, welcoming, and consistently fun, this is the kind of place you keep coming back to season after season!! Not a corporate sell out.

Love this ski resort for kids learning how to ski/snowboard. They have 3 carpet runs that have very gradual slopes, perfect for beginners. The kids pricing for passes is very fair. We always have so much fun here!
