Check Out Crystal Mountain Ski Resort

Washington State’s largest ski destination with a total of 2,600 skiable acres and over 50 named runs, skiers and snowboarders from the greater Seattle and Tacoma area flock to the slopes in the shadow of Mt. Rainier to enjoy the beautiful views, fast groomers and fresh snow. There’s something for everyone here, if they aren’t skiing, guests can enjoy a scenic gondola up to the summit of Crystal Mountain where Mt. Rainier stands only 12 miles away.

When Should I Ski or Board Crystal Mountain Ski Resort?

Catch a ride midweek on a bus with a ski group that comes up over multiple weeks and receive a discounted group lift ticket – it doesn’t get much better than that. These bus groups are private, non-commercial, non-profit entities. Most midweek bus groups finish their season late February to mid-March. Learn more.
