Martin is an extinct town in the northwest United States, in Kittitas County, Washington. The GNIS classifies it as a populated place;[1] Stampede Pass is near to the west.

A post office called Martin was established in 1892, and remained in operation until 1902.[2] The community was named for the fact an American marten was killed near the original town site.[3]

In 1939, the Northern Pacific Railway opened a ski area on the eastern portal of the Stampede Tunnel called Martin Ski Dome.[4] The resort was to compete with the ski area built a few miles north by the Milwaukee Road at Hyak in 1937, the Milwaukee Ski Bowl. It closed in 1942 with the start of World War II and then was sold to the University of Washington students association; it re-opened as "Husky Chalet" and had two rope tows. The Meany Lodge of The Mountaineers is also nearby.
