Amabilis skiing

Between I-90 and Kachess Lake, connected to no other ridgelines, Amabilis Mountain stands tall. Amabilis gets many visitors as it is a Washington prominence peak but the main attraction as a destination is the winter skiing. Every cross country skier has been up at least once. In summer, there are much better places to find yourself but if you've got some extra time, you can drive to the summit for some exceptional views of the area.

Amabilis Mountain

Distance: 0 miles in summer, 5 in winter
Elevation Gain: 0 in summer, 2,200 in winter

Take I-90 to Exit 63. Go north a half mile and take a right on the road that will take you up to the summit. When you get close to the top, there is a left turn off the main road that takes you to the true summit. A short walk gets you up on the summit rocks.
