Crystal Mountain opens for skiing Saturday, December 20. Fresh snow is on the ground, and opening runs include Green Valley Express, Chinook Express, and Discovery, with the Mount Rainier Gondola also in service.
Parking reservations are required for day visitors this season, but they can be tough to come by. The upside of staying at Crystal Mountain Hotels? You don’t have to think about it.
Overnight guests park directly in our hotel parking areas. Arrive after 2pm, park once, and stay parked for your entire stay. No daily shuffle. No extra logistics. Just an easy start to your ski days.
Translation: you show up, drop your bags, and go shred.
Wake up at the base, grab first chair, ski all day, crash hard, repeat.
Book direct and save 10% on your stay:
