White Pass offers easy access to a variety of recreational opportunities including hiking, backpacking, skiing, snowboarding and cross-country skiing.  The pass is crossed by the popular Pacific Crest Trail, which runs from British Columbia, Canada to Mexico.  Other trailheads abound at the Pass or along its approaches.   Several ski areas populate the pass, with shuttle buses between ski areas.  The winter visitor will find numerous condos and vacation rentals available in nearby towns for lodging.
