Yakima Valley Winter Activities
Even though there's 300 days of sunshine in the Yakima Valley, there's still plenty of winter sports activity to take advantage of! Once the snow begins to fall, the Yakima Valley gets transformed into a winter sport haven. The hiking trails are converted into avenues for miles of snowshoeing and cross-country skiing. The alpine meadows and valleys become prime snowmobile real estate. And families of skiers and snowboarders load up and start heading for White Pass Ski Area! Winter in the Yakima Valley is a magical time!
