Crystal Mountain

The key word at Crystal Mountain is variety - from gentle cruising groomers to challenging steeps and backcountry adventure. As Washington’s largest and highest ski area we make sure that you spend less time resting and more time enjoying the slopes with our high-speed six-person lifts and quads.

Crystal Mountain offers advanced skiers six basins and a healthy number of black diamond and double black diamond trails and a total of 2,600 acres of lifted runs and in-bound back country skiing. The summit of the ski resort at 7,012 feet offers incredible views of Mount Rainier. The mountain averages 367 inches of snow each year.

During the summer, Crystal turns into an oasis featuring lift-serviced dining at Washington’s highest restaurant, hiking, horseback riding and much more.

Getting here from the Puget Sound is easy- we are located near the northeast corner of Mount Rainier National Park, southeast of Seattle. You can drive or take our Express Bus for an adventurous, hassle-free day on the slopes. This attraction is located about 34.1 miles from Seattle-Tacoma International Airport.
