Regional attractions within a half-day�s commute from Mukilteo include Snoqualmie Falls and Mount Rainier National Park, both of which are located southeast of the Seattle area. The Mount Baker- Snoqualmie National Forest skirts the edge of the Seattle-Everett area and has several popular ski areas.
