Celebration, fundraiser highlight Stevens Pass season end

Stevens Pass concluded its winter season with a vibrant Spring Fest on April 13, which featured the much-anticipated Chuck-a-Duck fundraiser benefiting Outdoors for All, an organization that supports adaptive skiing. General Manager Ellen Galbraith expressed her satisfaction with the event's turnout, highlighting the joyful atmosphere and community spirit. The festivities included a pond skim competition, where participants donned whimsical costumes as they attempted to skim across an icy pond. Galbraith praised the season's success, mentioning that favorable weather allowed for an early opening and a strong start to winter. The introduction of new events, including the Friday Night Lights rail jam competition and an active Ski and Ride School, contributed to a memorable season.

Looking ahead, Stevens Pass is excited to build on this momentum, especially with the anticipated return of Women's Weekend, which saw participation double this year compared to last. The resort also plans to continue its mixed parking model into the next season, encouraging reservations and carpooling to optimize guest experience. Additionally, the Stevens Pass Bike Park is set to open on June 27, further diversifying summer activities for visitors.
