The resort’s page doesn’t say which season these rules are for. They were current on the page when we checked.
What it costs
Parking is free and first come, first served, and the ski area has never charged for it or used reservations, though it says that could change.
Book or pay
If the lots are full
Weekend and holiday lots can fill early. If you can’t arrive by about 8am, the next best window is after noon, and a cheaper afternoon ticket starts at 12:30.
Good to know
- Overnight parking in the Heather Meadows and White Salmon lots is limited and needs a reservation.
