Latest worldwide snow report
UPDATED 8 DECEMBER 2021 We're into December and the start of the 21-22 season is looking much more promising than the start of 20-21 a year ago in many respects. The difference is most marked in Western Europe where other than the concern of rising cases and the arrival of the omicron variant, ski areas that hadn't opened at all last December are opening in their hundreds in the Pyrenees as well as in Austria, France, Germany and Italy. Ski areas in the dolomites and Pyrenees that were shut last winter have opened up to 180km (110 miles +) of terrain each in the past week, with up to a metre (40") of fresh snow falling. Despite tightening restrictions it's hard not to feel euphoric if you're one of those that have already made it to the slopes.....

Crystal Mountain ski resort:
“Hands down the best skiing terrain in Washington State. Lots of really cool alpine bowls and challenging terrain.
The only flaw here is getting the mountain is a rough (ed?) and it is expensive. It is a local skiing icon, and a super fun mountain when the crowds are not too crazy.
Not stoked about them charging for parking this season.”

Mission Ridge ski resort:
“Really fun locals ski hill. This place is a bit of a throw back, but I really enjoy skiing here when I am in Wenatchee. There are a few challenging shoots near the top, but where Mission really shines in with the fast groomers. The mountain skis more like a Colorado ski area than a Washington State resort. Lots of fast intermediate terrain. Great culture, the mountain has a fun, happy laid back culture. It's worth a stop.”

Stevens Pass ski resort:
“Mountain has a rich history and culture. Sadly, since Vail took over they have destroyed that culture. They killed off the independent ski schools going into this season which has been a source of the mountains pulse for generations.
Last year the lifts consistently opened late or not at all as they didn't want to put the resources into staffing for patrol to get the fun terrain open in a timely fashion. They also frequently didn't have enough lift operators to run the mountain due to poor relations with employees.
Vail needs to realize that NW skiing is a different beast and needs to be run differently than Colorado Mega Resorts.
The potential is there for them to get with the program and get things back on track. For that to happen management needs to listen to the gripes of the locals and do the right thing.
Also, bring the bike park back this summer!”
