Bill Speidel’s Underground Tour
Speidel was a local historian (he wrote the book Sons of the Profits) who relished stories of Seattle’s sordid past: the good old days of hard-drinking politicians and hard-working ‘seamstresses,’ as the bordello girls were called. This famous ‘underground’ tour, which takes you through the tunnels and sidewalks hidden beneath the streets of Pioneer Square, might get a little corny at times, but it delivers the goods on historic Seattle as a rough and rowdy industrial town. The tour starts at Doc Maynard’s Public House, named after one of the city’s founding fathers and quite a character. An Ohio native, Maynard was divorced when he arrived in the city and was out for a…

The Summit at Snoqualmie
The Summit is a network of four ski areas that lie 50 minutes due east of downtown Seattle on Interstate 90. Alpental is a smaller mountain best for advanced and expert skiers; it is known for its steeps, extensive backcountry and limited but challenging tree skiing. Summit West is the main area of the Summit; it’s for beginners and families and has gear rentals and the most developed lodge and dining facilities. It is possible to ski from Summit West over to Summit Central, which is for beginners and intermediates and is home to the Summit’s largest terrain park. Summit East is the smallest of the areas and is good for intermediates. It’s the location of the Nordic…

Rei
As much an adventure as a shopping experience, this giant state-of-the-art megastore has its own climbing wall – a 65ft rock pinnacle to the side of the store’s entryway. The wall is open for scrambling at various times daily, except Tuesday when it’s reserved for private groups. (You can climb free of charge, but be prepared to wait your turn.) You can also check out the rain-proofing of various brands of gear by entering a special rainstorm shower; or road-test hiking boots on a simulated mountain trail. REI also rents various ski packages, climbing gear and camping equipment – call for daily and weekly rates.

Mt Baker
Not technically on its namesake, Baker is located on the adjacent Shuksan Arm. It blows the mind with an average annual snowfall of 647in and holds the unofficial world record for seasonal snowfall at an established ski area (1140in during the 1998–99 season). Rightly famous for powder, expert runs and backcountry, Baker is also home to the Legendary Banked Slalom every February. The Slalom started in 1985 and was the first organized snowboarding competition in the world. Baker is about three hours’ drive from Seattle, but is worth the longer trip.

Stevens Pass
Stevens Pass is some 80 miles east, and slightly north, of Seattle. It is known for its surprising variety of terrain with everything on offer from glades to bowls to bumps to an elaborate terrain park.

Stevens is also good for families and groups that vary in skill level but want something more challenging than the Summit West or Central.
