Snoqualmie Pass [USA]

I had a great time few days ago exploring Snoquamie Falls and Snowquamie Pass which is about 1hour drive east of Seattle, about 90km.

Snoquamie falls is the big and high waterfall located here. It looks so huge and so powerful, many people come here for the waterfall view

Snoquamie pass is the skiing area, Google map is here, this season is quite crowded as people come from nearby areas to ski. It is a very beautiful and attractive place I have laid my eyes on so far after my arrival in Washington State.

Compared to Queenstown of New Zealand, a paradise for skiers and very famous in Southern hemisphere for its adventurous activities, I found this area is quite extraordinary with the Christmas trees covered by snow. It is white everywhere and it looks like magic.

A video to the pass is here

Nearby attractions:

  • Space needle
  • Museum of Flight
  • Bellevue and downtown Seattle
  • Olympia capital
  • The university of Washington
  • The Seattle aquarium
  • Leavenworth Christmas village
  • Bruce Lee grave site - if you want to pay a visit to the late legend of Kong Fu martial art!
  • Many others!

Hahahaha, you won’t die that easily @MukulR when you are there you will know how to dress yourself not to get cold. It is absolutely beautiful with trees covered in snow, love it so much, I wish there were a spot we could park and walk through it, how heavenly amazing it would be!

Sure dear @helga19 it was a great trip and I almost forget to breathe.

We did not plan for this trip so we did not stay after visiting for few hours. It is worth it and I might go again. Merry Christmas to you and your family too dear Inna.
