  Each year, the people of Wenatchee thuoc chua ung thu phoi , Washington and the operators of the Mission Ridge ski area make a bargain with Mother Nature -- they'll put up with the cold weather, just please include some snow in the forecast.
  
  Not everyone, of course, skis or snowboards, but the Mission Ridge Ski and Board Resort has become such an integral part of the Wenatchee community that even non-skiers can see the benefit of keeping a good snow base on Mission Ridge. The area attracts not only locals, but brings in hordes of sun-seeking Western Washington visitors who abandon the "Cascade Cement" they call snow on the other side of the Cascades to come to the dry powder snow here that skiers and boarders find so much more appealing.
  
  That translates into hotel rooms, restaurant meals, shopping in local stores and of course good, steady revenue for the ski resort itself. So, please Mother Nature - bring it on.
  
  The resort was disappointed in the mild winter of 2013-14 and that meant about 10,000 skiers visited the mountain from the previous year. Mission Ridge has resolved to do better this year. They thuoc chua ung thu tinh hoan have not yet called someone in to do a Spirit Dance for Snow, but they did the next best thing last fall with their Pray for Snow Dance featuring the Posies rock band. There were some early signs the tactic may be working.
  
  Mission Ridge takes part of the guesswork out of the equation by making its own snow and, because of that, they were able to open in November 2014. When the resort is in full operation, skiers and boarders can choose from 36 ski runs and play on more than 2,000 acres of skiable terrain - a wonderland of trails, chutes and bowls that most skiers or boarders will be able to handle. In fact, only 10 percent of the resort's terrain is considered difficult with 60 percent intermediate and 30 percent beginner trails. There's even another 800 acres available for further development.
  
  The area's four chairlifts - including one high-speed quad - and two rope tows keep skiers moving up the mountain, reducing lift lines. In fact, there are only 700 skiers on the mountain during a typical weekday thuoc chua ung thu tu cung, which easily get swallowed up on the lifts and terrain. You can figure about double that number on weekends.
  
  While there are no overnight accommodations at Mission Ridge, the area is relatively quick and easy to get to from Wenatchee, where the lodging and restaurants make a Mission Ridge weekend attractive for skiers and boarders from Western Washington. Families in particular like Mission Rige because it's shaped like a big bowl and all the runs end up in the same area by the lodge, making it easier for everyone to meet up.
