Riders get 1,800 vertical feet on three sides of two different mountains. Stevens averages 450" of snowfall annually on 1,125 acres of skiable terrain. The terrain ranges from expert only, to smooth, wide open cruising runs for all levels of snow sports enthusiasts. Five nights per week after dark (Thursday through Monday until March 6), the trails near six lifts are lit for night skiing and riding. Stevens has two terrain parks: Top Phlight Terrain Park, for serious rippers, and Dog Dunes for tamer ones. Night skiing begins December 10.
