Loup Loup Ski Bowl is a ski area located in the Methow Valley of Okanogan County, Washington, midway between the towns of Twisp and Omak on Highway 20.

Loup Loup features a vertical rise of 1220 feet (370 m) to a top elevation of 5280 feet (1610 m) above sea level. Loup has 550 acres (2.2 km²) of alpine skiing area. The hill has 10 major runs, and 3 lifts, including a quad chair that was moved to Loup Loup from Crystal Mountain. The mountain is operated by a non-profit ski education foundation with a board of fifteen volunteers. The Loup is a great place for families and first timers. The resort also includes a hill for tubing, tube rentals, 23 kilometers of groomed cross country skiing trails.

The ski area's season generally runs from late November or December until April, but is only open four days out of the week, and on holidays. Loup Loup offers ski and snowboard lessons, rentals, and also children's programs.

Loup Loup has been recognized as a safe ski area with short lift lines, polite skiers, and reasonably priced food [ [http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/getaways/254436_small_ski05.html "Small ski areas east of the mountains offer laid-back alternatives"] , by Barry Truman, Seattle Post-Intelligencer January 5, 2006] .
