Crystal Mountain ski area, Northern Cascade Range, Washington

  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. says Ken Baker.

This ski area has 10 lifts, and they make for a comforting ride up the mountain. All in all there are 50 trails to select from; it's a perfect mixture. With 2,300 acres of terrain you will never lack ski terrain. This ski mountain gets higher than average snow each season. Crystal Mountain is a full-scale ski mountain featuring a rather high elevation difference
    when you compare it to other ski mountains in the region. The ski run map on this net page will give you a good idea what Crystal Mountain is like. Crystal Mountain is a good ski resort for everybody with many beginner and intermediate ski runs. The grandiose
mountain vista of Washington and the buzz of coasting down a slope are in themselves incentive enough to come here to ski. Crystal Mountain has a much lower than average ratio of red and black ski runs and a much higher than average share of blue and green ski runs. The snow blanketed mountains of the Northern Cascade Range make for a magnificent panorama. Crystal Mountain's drop from top to bottom of 3,100 feet is sufficient for a good top to bottom run. Crystal Mountain has an okay diversity of ski runs and an okay  
selection of different ski lifts. The snow here gets especially deep, 32 feet every season, and that is one of the reasons this is such a great ski mountain. Crystal Mountain has the biggest altitude difference for 512 miles. You may be into skiing or snowboarding, or both, doesn't matter, there are loads of good locations for that around here. The snowboarding and the skiing in this part of the country is a wonderful thing to do during the winter. The snow-white mountains of Washington are a magnificent location for snowboarding or skiing. This is a good ski resort with loads of different ski runs; it's completely out of the question to get bored here. Not too many hotels in the neighborhood, you'll have to voyage a bit to get to one, but if you don’t have reservations, you might end up sleeping in your car. Getting a good workout and just hanging out with your skiing pals will have you returning. The Northern Cascade Range in winter is so picturesque you won’t believe it.
