2024 - 2025 season is almost here - just after a few pages of the calendar are turned.

This website will continue to be maintained this season!

 

Happy Spring!

Our season is nearly over. The snow is melting with bare spots all over as the calendar winds down simultaneously to the end of winter contracts. Many of us are feeling lucky that we got what snow we did and had some really good skiing at all areas.

We are thankful for all the dedicated groomer operators who take a pride in putting down some really nice velvety corduroy. Thank you LandTec and Lake Easton State Park crew for all the miles and miles / kilometers in addition to Jaelle and Traci at Salmon La Sac and, the Meany Lodge staff for the early season 420 road.

USFS Visitor Center winter operations at the Pass - currently open, then will close this fall and reopen in time for the holidays.

Hours of operation will be 8:30 AM - 3:30 PM.

They operate out of the "Old Firehouse" now and this site is available for permit purchase, but skip the line and purchase online using the button above. The snowshoe ranger led program is back and click on link on snowshoe page.

Permits are NOT ON sale yet - They go on sale Nov. 1st 2024! click on link above, it goes directly to the State Parks Sno-Park permit site. Tickets can also be purchased at Hyak Sno-Park, USFS Visitor Center up on the Pass (old Firehouse), and at Crystal Springs.

Up on the I-90 corridor, please do not park in the residential neighborhoods (you will be ticketed). Or in the I-90 freeway interchanges - its illegal.

​CCWRC is pleased to present this source of information about the I-90 Sno-Parks in addition to other non-motorized Sno-Parks in Kittitas County. This site is created by CCWRC volunteers and those that recreate at various Sno-Parks.  CCWRC works as volunteers with Washington State Parks Sno-Park Program. 

This website is meant to compliment the Washington State Parks winter recreation website - see link below. CCWRC site is one stop shopping for events and current conditions by those very familiar with the area.
