Ticket Desk — Attraction in Enumclaw

We were looking for a quick easy beautiful ski trip to drive in and drive out and this was perfect. Little tricky for planing your routes, but after you have been once that will help for next time. Just going to list my thoughts.

Drive in was beautiful!

Parking lot was a mess.

Buying lift tickets, just fine.

Buying your rentals, difficult. Very unorganized. After I was sized I had to hunt/stalk one of the several employees working to get my skiis. Then to get my poles there was no explanation and I had to go back inside and ask for help which after an extreme eye roll I was helped. Also there was no map offered or seen.

Lifts, great! Several lifts with fun runs offered with very friendly staff. Not as many runs as Crested Brutte, but still excellent skiing, in April no less!

Organization of lifts and runs, iffy. One problem was maps were few and far between. Maps were only offered at the top of lifts from what I saw. This made for planning very difficult. Also marking of runs was not always clear. If you need to start out with green just head over to Forrest Queen. Only take the gondola up if you can do blue or better. You are able to take the gondola up just for the view if that is your desire. Do go up! Great view and a restaurant on top.

I would come back because it is a beautiful area, but this first experience...

Reservation system are terrible, I purchase local season pass and no one says we need some reservations. Than I receive the violation for reservation which I reserve for Monday, but I was filling not good kinda sick and I’m staying at home. Than two previous violations that I got was because when I purchase local pass nobody said that we need to make reservations, also I receive mail with violation just after the second visit of the resort. Trying to contact manager or people who can help and it’s not so easy. Last one they sold tickets and passes more they can and what happened some days no parking and reservations. Nice resort and nature but...
