The meanest man on planet Earth works at the only gas station in Skykomish. It is, in fact, the only gas station for miles around. After climbing Mt. Sawyer (off Foss River Road, 2 miles east of Skykomish - a great hike by the way), my husband and I had run out of water and it was a hot day so we were very thirsty. I also had to go the bathroom. So we stopped at the Skykomish gas station. My husbands job was to acquire beverages while we were stopped...my plan had been to use the bathroom while he was doing so. However, I made the (apparently) huge mistake of asking about the bathroom before any purchases had been made. The individual working behind the counter went off...verbally abusing myself and my husband, accusing us of lying to him about whether or not we intended to purchase anything (which we did), claiming that there were 3 other rest areas that we had passed where we should have stopped (which there are not, because we were only coming from two miles down the road). He dropped the F bomb on us, and threatened to call the cops if we did not leave. Apparently, Skykomish is the only town I have ever heard of where needing to use the bathroom is a crime. Obviously, we decided that hell would freeze over before we would be spending any money at this place...there is no reason to reward people like this by giving them your business. So we went off down the road to the Espresso Chalet where we were treated very nicely, and were able to use the bathroom, as well as having two delicious milkshakes. They probably have about a hundred flavors and everyone there is very nice. Plus, Harry and the Hendersons was shot on the premises. We left a huge tip, and left with a sweet taste in our mouth, rather than the sour one when we left Skykomish.

This is a very creepy town (as of 08/2010). There is only one place to stop off of Highway two and it is the one and only gas station. Surprisingly the restrooms (on the side, outdoors) are somewhat tolerable--but barely. (It does say you have to be a customer to use, so get a key!) Thankfully the store does have enough snacks to keep you going. But avoid the rest of this town. It feels like it is right out of an old horror movie--despite the beautiful surroundings.

The town is actually very nice btw, spent 3 days in it. The gas station was ok, but the employee working was blabing away on the phone the whole time and had poor customer service

Worst service ever spent $60 on fuel and guy behind the counter would not let anyone use the restrooms told us to go down the street
