11:56 AM LOCAL TIMEStevens Pass straddles the crest of the Cascade Range and links the North Cascades with the Puget Sound lowlands. Rising to around 4,800 meters (15,700 ft) in winter ski zones and descending through forested passes in summer hikes, it serves as both a vital regional transit corridor and a destination for skiing, snowboarding, mountain biking, and multimodal trail use. The area is centered on the Steven's Pass Resort, a high-alpine ski area with terrain for intermediate and advanced riders, but it also includes extensive cross-country and downhill routes accessible via nearby trail networks. The pass and adjacent highway corridor reward visitors with dramatic mountain views, year-round recreational opportunities, and proximity to national forests and parklands; long-distance travelers and local day-users alike come for the elevated high-mountain environment and well-maintained facilities and trailheads.
