Beating the crowds
- Tuesday to Thursday is quietest almost everywhere, and often cheaper.
- Arrive before 8 a.m. on weekends. A Tripadvisor reviewer reports that is enough to find parking, and the lot is free and on-site.
- Mimi, the wide green on Chair 1, is the main runout for most of the mountain and gets the most traffic. Summer Road, across the creek, is narrower but usually less busy.
- Chair 2 (Wenatchee Express) serves more than half the terrain, so lines form at its base. Chair 4 and Chair 3 are alternate uphill routes that are usually shorter.
- Midweek days in January and February are noticeably quieter than weekends. The resort also offers a Park Offsite and Save shuttle ticket on select dates.
