Best mountain to go to (school in tacoma)

I would say crystal but there isn't a whole lot of park. When at peak park season for crystal, There's 2 down rails, a tube or two, maybe a kink rail an a few boxes. There are 0 jumps. You can just hop on the freeway so this would be the most convenient mnt.
 
white pass is a bit farther away but it definitely has the driest snow and probably one of the better parks in washington
 
no..? baker has by far the heaviest snow in washington, with crystal next, than snoqualmie. op may want to venture to stevens or mission but they're pretty similar to white pass as far as dryness of snow and what they have to offer
 
I guess we should just agree to disagree haha, snoqualmie definetely has the heaviest snow in my experience, then stevens and baker/crystal tie for dryest in the area. Also, snoqualmie has surpassed stevens as best park in the state IMO.
 
White Pass is straight up not worth it. Great mountain to learn to ride at, but people outgrow it, including me.

The entire backside is flat except for one small zone. Park is small, and not very good. Weak freeskiing culture. It gets less snow because it's a couple degrees warmer and far away from convergence zones.

Go to Snocompton, Stevens and Crystal. Shorter drive for better skiing.
 
snoqualmie is definitely wettest snow because its lower altitude wise than crystal (usually about 5-10 degrees warmer than crystal
 
Snocompton is the way to go

it's the closest, you get night skiing, it's cheap, Alpy is good

If you are 18 still you can get the pass with 5 crystal days for a pretty good deal, which is rad

Stevens is far enough away that it's kind of a pain in the ass to get to. The money you save by getting a snowcompton pass will let you make trips to the other areas hopefully
