This lake is so wonderful. Tipsoo Lake is a nice lake close to Ghost Lake, and there's whitewater on Ohanepecosh River for all you adrenaline junkies. The Northern Cascade Range scenery is always beautiful. If you want a good time in the great outdoors, just come on down to Ghost Lake.

| | Range. Go for a hike on the Dewey Lake Trail, and there are some great whitewater spots on Chinook Creek. Cayuse Pass is a magnificent location to stop by nearby; don't leave Ghost Lake without first going for a hike along the Sun Top Trail. Howard Johnson Snoqualmie/Summit is a great place to get some rest.
This lake is so wonderful. There's no such thing as a bad day of skiing at nearby Crystal Mountain, and Boundary Creek is one of the streams close | |

by that might be worth visiting. There are other sites here than Ghost Lake, for example Deadwood Lakes, and you can stay the night at Ohanapecosh Campground. But wait, there's more enjoyable things to do in the Northern Cascade Range.
White Pass has glorious slopes and a friendly staff, and Dry Creek Campground is a glorious campground nearby.

Crystal Mountain is a big mountain with all kinds of skiing available, easy, hard, you pick. The scenery is great, and so is the snow.... |
Granite Lake
 | 13 miles away
Granite Lake has crystal clear water, is surrounded by a very primtive campground. I don't recall how many campsites there are, but I have never been there when there was more than one other party. The surrounding area is incredibly beautiful, well worth the extremely rough road in. 4 wheel drive only. There is an abandoned copper mine in the area, and if you can find the trailhead, (good luck), the scenery is breathtaking. I've been to the mine 3 times. Watch out for bears! There is a ghost town below the copper mine. Very little is left. There are picnic tables, no water and no bathrooms. Come prepared.... |
White Pass
| 15 miles away
...a perfect balance between pulse quickening steeps, wide open cruisers and gentle learning areas with 33 percent of the terrain geared toward experts, 43 percent toward intermediates and 24 percent toward beginners.
Nothing gets you to the top faster than the Great White Express, Washington's only Doppelmayr high-speed detachable quad. Great White can take you from the base to the summit in five minutes.
White Pass is recognized as one of the greatest mountains to ride in the Northwest. Natural quarter-pipes, kickers, drops, cornices and chutes challenge even the most experienced boarder. It offers a half-pipe.
It's got one of the most scenic and well-maintained cross-country areas in the Northwest. The 18 km of double track, which allows both classic and skating, circles a picturesque lake and then climbs into the Wenatchee National Forest.
The White Pass Learning Center has developed a wide variety of programs for all ages and abilities. Highly-trained instructors are there, ready to help you to learn, to improve and to grow. So, whether your a novice snowboarder or an a... |
Snoqualmie

From the steep and deep to the high-speed buffed-out cruisers, from our gentle learning areas to our benchmark parks and pipe, diversity is a way of life around here. With four unique base areas and less than an hour from Seattle on Interstate 90, no other resort in the country offers so much variety with this much convenience. Consider it a buffet for the outdoor enthusiast!
For the third year in a row, we stayed open longer than any other resort in the state, this season through Memorial Day. What can we say? We love spring skiing as much as you do!
So if you're looking for a true escape this winter, look no further than The Summit.
Just around the corner...
