<p>While you can stay at the White Pass Village Inn, you can also save money by staying at Lot C in an RV. While there are no hookups in the lot, it&rsquo;s completely free to stay there. You can also find lodging right on the mountain by looking up cabins on Airbnb and VRBO. There&rsquo;s plenty to do on the mountain, including dining, drinking, shopping and more.</p>
<p>Take a twilight snowshoe tour, which happens on Saturdays typically in January and February during the season. If the moonlight is bright enough, you don&rsquo;t need to bring a headlamp. Reserve your spot ahead of time to ensure that there is space for you.</p>
