Friends, long have we sought
the beautiful solitude of the Alpental Back Country, the secret half pipe
at Hyak, and many other secret stashes at Snoqualmie Pass. Since Booth
Creek Ski Holdings (Ski Lifts inc/SE Group) gained the operating lease in
the late 80s, Snoqualmie Pass has been socially and environmentally
degraded. Booth Creek has destroyed wet-lands, logged riparian
zones, limited lift access, spilled hydraulic fluid, harassed public property campers, restricted access to
public lands, charged fees to access
public parking, and many other dastardly underhanded deeds. Apparently, the Mount Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest Service Field
Office, under the direction of Rob Iwamoto, are doing all they can to
protect your public access, protect the fragile riparian areas of the South
Fork Snoqualmie River, and sustain the Snoqualmie Pass culture.
The time has come to stop the
anti-Washington, anti-public campaign waged by the Booth Creek Ski Holdings Company.
Why ruin Snoqualmie Pass? The public lands at
Snoqualmie Pass form a unique ecosystem, not just another cookie-cutter
destination ski resort. |

Did Rob Iwamoto really
approve riparian zone logging?

Free Camping Areas
The upper two public
parking lots at Alpental have been free camping areas since the two lots
were made more than fifty years ago.
