Leavenworth Winter Vacation in the Cascade Mountains
Arguably the most distinguishing feature of the Cascade Mountains region is that it remains a viable outdoor recreation area throughout the year. In just a matter of weeks, the alpine valleys, mountains, and hillsides will be engulfed with an inviting blanket of white snow, making the prospect of a Leavenworth winter vacation all the more enticing. Embracing winter has become a lifestyle for those of us in the Cascades. As autumn fades into the distance, the parks become more vacant, the slopes open up, and the temperatures start to drop. But don’t let the brisk air discourage you from admiring the crunch of fresh powder beneath your feet or the beauty of a morning snowfall. Now is the time to uncover your stocking caps, hand warmers, and scarfs and make the most of the Leavenworth winter with a grin on your face.
