This weekend's wet weather across Central and Eastern Washington also brought a round of late-summer snow to the slopes of the Mission Ridge Ski & Board Resort.
Mission Ridge opens Dec. 4 after cold temps boosted snowmaking. Limited terrain and lifts will run as crews prep the rest of the mountain for the 2025-26 ski season.
Mission Ridge may miss its traditional Thanksgiving opening as warm weather slows snowmaking despite new snowfall and hopes for a major cooldown this weekend.
