Summer is in full swing, and at Stevens Pass Bike Park, the mountain is alive with activity. While thoughts of winter’s snow-covered slopes might be on the horizon, there’s still plenty of time to revel in the summer adventures Stevens Pass has to offer. This past weekend was a perfect example, spent exploring the trails and getting a sneak peek at the exciting progress on a brand-new downhill bike trail section. A huge shoutout to the dedicated trail crew who are not only maintaining the existing beloved trails but also tirelessly working to expand the Stevens Pass Bike Park experience with new additions. Their hard work is truly appreciated and is shaping up for an even better bike park season.
Stevens Pass Bike Park in summer with mountain bikers and lush greenery
Sunday morning at the bike park was buzzing with energy. The rental shop was a hive of activity as the team efficiently geared up riders with bikes and equipment ready to hit the trails. It was fantastic to reconnect with the lift operations and patrol teams at Hogsback, witnessing firsthand the vibrant atmosphere of Stevens Pass in the summer. The mountain was shared by enthusiastic mountain bikers, families enjoying the scenic views, and PCT hikers passing through, creating a dynamic and welcoming environment for everyone. After several exhilarating runs down the mountain, a well-deserved refueling stop at the Bull’s Tooth provided the perfect break before heading back out for more trail action. With more days like these planned for August before venturing to other bike parks, the Stevens Pass Bike Park is proving to be a summer highlight.
Looking ahead to the winter season, preparations are already underway. While enjoying the summer months, the teams are also diligently working to ensure a smooth transition to winter operations. From essential lift line maintenance to meticulous snowcat servicing in the vehicle shop, every detail is being addressed. Even the Foggy Goggle’s piano deck is receiving a fresh coat of paint, and indoor spaces are being refreshed, demonstrating the commitment to continuous improvement throughout the resort. This dedicated “off-season” effort ensures that Stevens Pass is primed to deliver an exceptional experience for both employees and guests come winter.
Whether you’re a seasoned downhill biker or simply looking for a scenic mountain escape, Stevens Pass Bike Park welcomes you. Remember, renewing your Epic Pass grants you access to free scenic lift rides on Hogsback, perfect for hiking, disc golf, or simply soaking in the mountain views. Whatever brings you to the Pass, we look forward to seeing you this summer at Stevens Pass Bike Park.
