Alpental Ski Area

Perhaps the steepest terrain in all of WA! Amazing out of the way ski area where you get great side-country and technical terrain. Not really for beginners!

Alpental ranks #3 in the nation for deep snow pack with 181" @ the summit!! Check out the deep powder vid. http://thesnowtroopers.com/2013/alpental-wa-tnts-day-off-at-the-office-226/

Powder Tuesdays are the best - it's closed Monday so double the pow! Get the cheap Bronze pass since it's too crowded and skied on the weekend anyway.
