About Stevens Pass
Stevens Pass sits at 4,061 feet in the central Cascades on US Highway 2 — the legendary old highway across the mountains that has carried skiers from Seattle for decades — receiving the deep, heavy Cascade snowfall that builds reliable snowpack through a long season from November into April. Its 1,125 skiable acres are compact by western standards but are well-matched to its terrain character: the front face is accessible and well-suited to intermediates, while the backside served by the Skyline and Southern Cross chairs delivers challenging, less-trafficked terrain for advanced skiers willing to explore. Stevens has a genuine local ski culture built over decades of Seattle families making the 90-minute drive on winter weekends, and its Ikon Pass affiliation has broadened its audience without fundamentally altering its unpretentious, community-oriented character.
