Tired of the lack of snow at Snoqualmie Pass, we had two options: Go North to Whistler or go South to Bachelor. Both area were forecasting snow and had a good base. We have not been to Bachelor in years and decided to head South. The drive down the east side of the Cascades was definitely more pleasant than the I5 corridor. From our house the drive is about five/ five and a half hours, same as Whistler. The weather was windy our first day, with about an inch of wet snow falling. Second day was a little better, with just Skyliner and Pinemarten chairs running. Saturday broke out bluebird and the Summit chair opened up with nice windpacked powder. Great trip, sure nice to finally go skiing.
