Mount Washington Alpine Resort is on the traditional and unceded territories of the K’ómoks First Nations in the mountains of the Pentlatch, E'iksan, Sahtloot and Sasitla peoples. The volunteers with the Mount Washington Volunteer Ski Patrol Association humbly and respectfully acknowledge all the unceded and traditional territories that we live, work, learn, and play on for which we are eternally grateful.
