Winter Parking Updates: Oct. 20, 2026

Hello Everyone,

The countdown is on… and we’re gearing up for another memorable winter as we celebrate 90 years of skiing and riding at Stevens Pass!

This season also marks the launch of the updated parking program we announced last spring, including reservations that will be required for most weekends and holidays. Midweek non-holiday parking remains unchanged, with no reservations required. These updates are designed to improve the arrival and departure experience, helping guests spend less time in traffic and more time on the mountain.

Here’s what to know as you start planning your visits:

  • Paid and free carpool reservations for weekends and holidays launch Sunday, Nov. 1 at 12 p.m.
  • Free parking reservations for weekends and holidays will be released each Tuesday during the season
  • RV lot reservations will launch on a new booking platform, Recreation.gov, starting Tuesday, Nov. 3 at 7 a.m.

You can find detailed information on parking, reservations, and RV camping on the Getting Here & Parking page of our website.

Our teams have been busy all summer getting the resort ready for winter, and we can’t wait to welcome you back. While the start of the season ultimately is up to Mother Nature, our target opening day is Dec. 4.

We’re counting down the days until we see you on the snow… and here’s to 90 years of Stevens Pass!

My best,

Ellen
