Check out the one close to Mt Ranier in Washington, close to KSEA. This airport is a little tricky getting into.
I like to fly into Jackson Hole Wyoming with low visability I suggest you use a IFR flight plan unless you want to become part of a mountain. The ATC will keep you out of harms way if you fly IFR otherwise you are on your own.
The mountains around this airport tops out at 12 to 16 hundred feet not much room for error. 8)

Try downloading Doherty's Difficult and Dangerous Approaches from avsim.com.  There are about 20 volumes with 5 or 6 flights in each, but they are mostly under 3 MB.
