Mt. Spokane Ski & Snowboard Park is inside Mount Spokane State Park, 28 miles from downtown Spokane, and it’s the only Washington state park with downhill skiing. The summit is 5,889 feet and the base lodge 4,200 feet, with 2,000 feet of skiable vertical on 1,704 acres. Six chairlifts serve 53 runs, rated 23% easiest, 62% more difficult and 15% most difficult. Lodge 2 is the main day lodge, and Lodge 1 sits near the Vista Cruiser and Northwood chairs.
Mt. Spokane is a nonprofit ski area. It runs night skiing Wednesday to Saturday on 16 runs. The stone Vista House at the summit was finished in 1933.
All eight cams are live video. The Snow Stake at Lodge 2 shows new snow at the main base, and the Lodge 2 cam shows the base area itself. Vista Cruiser and Northwood look out from the top of Chairs 1 and 6, near the summit, so compare them with the base cams to see how conditions change with height. Parkway Express and Hidden Treasure show the tops of Chairs 3 and 4. Hourglass looks at that run, and Half Hitch shows the terrain park. The resort posts its conditions report at 5am each morning.
The road up is SR-206 through Mount Spokane State Park, 28 miles from downtown Spokane. Fly into Spokane International Airport (GEG).
In Washington, chain requirements apply where they’re posted. Studded tires are legal only from November 1 to March 31 and don’t count as chains where chains are required. WSDOT says traction tires should carry the mountain-and-snowflake symbol and have at least 1/8 inch of tread.
Mt. Spokane isn’t on the Epic, Ikon or Indy Pass. It’s part of the Freedom Pass, so Mt. Spokane season pass holders get up to three free days at each of the other Freedom Pass mountains.
