As is often the case, Pacific Northwest skiers have seen it all this winter. Wind, rain, heavy snow—when you head out in the mountains across Washington and Oregon, it's best to be prepared for the best or worst. If you ask a local, they'll probably tell you that's part of the fun. Gore-Tex, after all, was invented for a reason.
Now, with the arrival of spring, the end of the lift-accessed ski season is in sight. These are the projected closing dates for ski resorts across the Pacific Northwest. All dates are subject to weather and conditions. They may change.
