Running all lifts except for Couloir Express. Allowing snow to accumulate on those runs for a few days before reopening. We expect to run 4 The Birds (Chair 4) daily if Couloir is closed.

White Pass Nordic Center
Glide along perfectly groomed trails through old growth forest, take in majestic views of the stunning Cascade Crest and realize that a day at the Nordic Center is winter recreation at its best.
The White Pass Nordic Center staff would like to welcome you to the quiet side of the ski area. We maintain 26 kilometers of trail that provide a variety of terrain suitable for beginning through expert cross-country skiers. We offer rental equipment for cross-country skiing, skate skiing, snowshoeing, and fat biking. We encourage you to browse our small retail center at the yurt. You'll also find our yurt to be a relaxing spot where you can grab a snack and catch up with friends and family upon your return to the trailhead.
