MAKE ROOM FOR THE SLOW MOMENTS

Warm up.
Stay awhile.

Pair a festive outing with a good meal and an overnight stay. Explore local cafés and restaurants, or find a mountain cabin, inn or easy I-5 hotel base.

Check holiday opening hours and book directly with the property or restaurant.

A little planning makes it better.

Dress for mountain evenings.

Bring warm layers and check the forecast before your visit. Snow is seasonal, never guaranteed. Conditions can differ between the mountain communities and the valley.

National Weather Service forecast & alerts

Check the road, then go.

Winter weather can affect I-5 and mountain roads. Review closures and chain controls before leaving, and follow posted restrictions.
