  • Most ski resorts in western Washington are now closed, following a ski season that brought less-than-ideal snowpack totals.
    Some Washington ski resorts, like the Summit at Snoqualmie and Stevens Pass Ski Resort, saw the lowest amount of snow received in 10 years.
    “Snowfall was definitely lower this season, as everyone knows, but we had a good season overall,” said Karter Riach, the director of marketing for the Summit at Snoqualmie.
    The Summit at Snoqualmie only received about 60% of their average snowfall.
    Stevens Pass said it ended the season with 294 inches of snow, which is lower than the average snowfall of 460 inches. A spokesperson for the resort said the last time they received less than 300 inches was in the 2014-2015 season.
    Crystal Mountain Ski Resort received 278 inches of snow this ski season, as of April 14. This is less than their average snowfall of 348 inches. On Friday, April 26, the resort announced that they are extending the ski season to Sunday, May 5, for weekends only.

    The snowfall happened……it just went south to California (where they need it!!). Lake Shasta is full (earliest to fill since 2011) and the entire Sierra Nevada Range is way, way above normal and Lake Elsinore in SoCal filled for the first time in over a decade.
