Probably going to board two days, Friday and Saturday. Not sure where we're staying yet.

Thinking of two resorts. I really want to go to Baker ... but it's a trek from Seattle right? 3 hours? Might be a bit much on my short trip.

Stevens for sure. I've been wanting to hit that for a while, seeing it in all of the Boardinsiders video.

Would anyone recommend Alpental/Snowqualmie? It looked to be very close to Seattle.

Also, is there any gnarly/good terrain that is safe for an inbounder like me? I may only be with my wife so I won't have any buddies around in case something happens. Something avy controlled but still adventurous would be ideal. But if not, that's fine as well.
