49 Degrees North

49 Degrees North Mountain Resort at Chewelah Peak, Washington, has more than 2,000 acres of mountain terrain, of which 300 acres have been identified for development as a master-planned resort. 49 Degrees North hired Bill Grimes (with a previous firm) and his team to lead site development and permitting for the resort area. The 300-acre private parcel, surrounded by National Forest acreage, is today envisioned (and permitted) for developing up to 2,700 units and 600,000 square feet of retail, office, and multi-purpose space. The project is designed to offer ski-in/ski-out access to virtually all developed parcels, taking advantage of the site’s slope-side location. SCJ continues to direct the resort’s design efforts, including work on conceptual planning, entitlement processing, environmental review, urban design, conceptual utility system planning, and other related activities necessary to support the project’s development.
