The Snoqualmie Ski Bowl, developed by the Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul, and Pacific Railroad, opened in early 1938. The skiing destination was renamed the Milwaukee Ski Bowl after World War II, so as not to confuse it with the "Snoqualmie Ski Area." The Ski Bowl offered the Northwest's first ski lift and lighted slopes for night skiing.
