First off, I have to disagree with the statement that the blues are like Colorado blacks, this just isn't true, they are legitimate intermediate runs. Secondly, I was disappointed with the amount of crowds at Alpental, with its easy highway access it is similar to the I 70 resorts here in Colorado. Now the good stuff, I skiied Alpental in April and we got 10 inches of fresh, which was surprisingly light and dry. Also the terrain had a number of nice surprises and challenges. There is definately some VERY good terrain here. I definately would like to put some more days in at Alpental.

ALPENTAL.. There are four areas that are considered "Summit at Snoqualmie". The other three "West, Central and East" are great learning hills. Especially "West". However if you want extremley steep runs in bound chutes and couloirs and much more snow than the other three then go to Alpental. The "blue" runs would be diamond runs in Colorado. The marque run "International" is 1500 continuous vert feet at 45 degrees plus. Jump into the top gate of Adrenalin and it is even steeper. This mountain has 2250 vert foot drop, one beginner run and two intermediate runs. The rest are very steep. It will highlight your weak points of skiing.
