The first Washington ski area to open was Mission Ridge on Saturday, thanks to their snowmaking. Mission is just south of Wenatchee, on the east side of the mountains. While it doesn't get much snow (this year: none), it's elevation and climate allow snowmaking. It was your classic East Coast shaved ice strip of white down a brown mountain.
Kind of fun, but kind of not. It's supposed to start snowing this week, so hopefully this will be the last time I have to stoop to this level.
