Quick tip on accessing ski resort discounts All of the local ski resorts offer a military discount at the ticket window or through guest services with valid military ID. Here’s a little-known tip for accessing your discount: Call your selected resort ahead of time for the specific resort policy as they don’t honor military discounts online with the new reservation system. For mountain forecast and status, our facilities frequently use the free smart phone application “On the Snow.” If you search “Washington” in the search bar, you’ll have access to all of Washington’s resort forecasts, snow reports and lift status. You also have the option to “favorite” a resort for quick access for your next trip! The WSDOT app also is a great resource for any mountain pass travel. The app has all current conditions, pass status and webcams for your travel that include pass closures, heavy snow, chain requirements and more.

The more mud, the better There aren’t many instances where mud is celebrated! At JBLM’s ORV Park, there’s nothing more fun than riding an ATV through a large mud puddle while maneuvering a winding trail in the woods. This adrenaline rush of an activity can be enjoyed all year long in Washington no matter the weather. If there are no training conflicts, the ORV Park is open daily from dawn to dusk. If you have your own dirt bike or ATV, you’re able to bring either out to the park using an annual park pass ($75) or a day pass ($15). No ATV, no problem! ATV rentals are available for $50 per hour with all safety gear included. Check out the details here:
