When we rolled in toStevens Pass(@stevenspass) we were cautiously optimistic.
We’d heard Stevens was good, we’d heard it was similar to our home resort, Schweitzer.
The bad news was that their season base depth was sitting right around 34 inches.
The good news: Stevens Pass wore that 34 inches well.
Does this look like 34" total to you?
However, actually skiing the mountain they felt very similar.
Stevens packs in the terrain.
We spent most of our time off the 7th Heaven double chair which accesses some incredible runs.
Stevens has them
Apparently the resort did some major brush cutting and clearing last summer and it shows.
Even though the snowpack was low most runs were very skiable and fun.
These were mostly untouched and offered some great turns.
Lower on the mountain are the parks.
Two jumps and a wide variety of rails stretch along and down a ridge.
This means that you’re able to hit most of the features every run.
They also have some of the widest and funnest boxes around if you don’t like to slide rails.
This park is prime for skiers and riders of all skill levels!
Does this confuse you?
to “Should I pack a BASE rig for this?”
Very few lines anywhere on the mountian
Boxes:Wide, curvy, and a good time.
Check out the Icicle Village if you need a place to crash.
Jacuzzi, mini cinnamon rolls, incredible views, this place has it all.
Ten blinking christmas lights out of ten
Overall Vibe:In a word?
Overall Resort Stoke Rating:Maximum Enthusiasm!
If an area is this good on 34 inches of snow I cant imagine it it after a dump.
I’m already thinking about ways to get back here.
