Guye Cabin
The Rustic Comfort of a Mountain Lodge
1932 - "The cabin will be known as Guye Cabin due to its proximity to Guye Peak. It is owned by ye Washington Alpine Club of Seattle. A variegated group of bathers, card sharks, lounge lizards, cats, mountain climbers and skiers."
One of the best things about WAC membership is historic Guye Cabin up near Snoqualmie Pass. The jewel of the Alpine Club, the Cabin serves as the focal point for many club classes, activities, and gatherings. Begun in 1932, it has been expanded over the years to become a rustic mountain lodge. It has easy access to all the summit ski areas and is a popular meeting place for members year round!
The perfect year-round hideaway is the rustic comfort of Guye cabin, located in the Mount Baker Snoqualmie National Forest at 3,200’ on Snoqualmie Pass, with views of Guye Peak, Kendall Peak, Denny Mountain, and Snoqualmie Peak. Guye Cabin is open to Washington Alpine Club members and their guests, members of associated outdoor clubs, and like minded non-profit organizations.
With 85 bunks, in women’s, men’s, and coed dormitories the cabin can accommodate a large group. Our warm and cozy Fireplace Room is perfect for reading, conversation, or playing games. Chess is always a favorite.
Guye Cabin has an outstanding library of outdoor literature and guides. Kids of all ages will find plenty of entertainment. Guye Cabin is hostel style. We have a full kitchen with electric stove, three microwaves, and a complete set of dishes, pots, pans, and cups. Just bring your own food, and prepare it at your leisure.
The Cabin is non-hosted. It is open every weekend in the winter, but during the summer plan on attending scheduled events or get “signed off” to open and close the Cabin. To get “signed off” you must volunteer at least one day in some capacity for the club.
Bunks have mattresses. Guests are asked to provide their own sleeping bags or bedding and pillows. The sleeping areas are not heated, so a 20 degree sleeping bag or better is recommended in the winter. Bring ear plugs if you are a light sleeper. Guye Cabin is a community establishment.
