Why Yakima?\n

Located in Central Washington on the eastern side of the Cascades, Yakima offers significantly easier access to outdoor recreation than many larger metro areas, with hiking, skiing, mountain biking, fishing, and the Cascade Mountains nearby. The Yakima Valley is also one of Washington's major wine, agriculture, and craft beverage regions, while Seattle and the Puget Sound are accessible for weekend trips.
