Popular local ski resort suspends operations due to lack of snow

NORTH BEND -- The Summit at Snoqualmie ski resort will suspend operations at the end of the day Wednesday, and not open again until the resort gets more snow.

The popular ski resort has been plagued by a lack of snow this season. The 2014-15 winter has been extremely mild and wet, making it one of the worst seasons in recent memory, and perhaps putting it on pace for a record-low snow year.

The Summit at Snoqualmie released this statement on their website Wednesday:


No mountain snow is in the immediate future.

Stevens Pass and Crystal Mountain continue on limited operations, as snow levels are just slightly more manageable at the higher elevation resorts.

Mt. Spokane in Eastern Washington announced Wednesday they were also suspending operations.
