49 Degrees North

49 Degrees North is a favorite with locals in northeast Washington State. You will find 2,325 skiable acres on Chewelah Peak, with 54 runs serviced by five lifts. The addition of 12 cut runs and the gladed areas of East Basin have doubled the ski terrain. The vertical is around 1,850 feet. The Chair 2 terrain park is one of the longest in the Northwest.
