November 14, 2005, Stevens Pass

What a difference a day can make here in the Pacific North-wet.<br><br>11/14/05 - Stevens Pass was nicly covered with 4-5 inches of new overnight. Well bonded to underlayers, no slides or sluffs.  The groomed runs were smooth and the whole hill was uncrowded all day.  Overcast first thing and getting a few blue holes by 11. There was a definite freezeline where the previous day's rain had turned to snow. (Per the lot gal, Sunday was pretty bad with rain that didn&#8217;t turn to snow until 4ish.) Most liftlines we were waiting for 2-3 chairs to load or less, so loads of fresh turns and first crosses all along the edges of the lower runs.  Even found a boot-top deep zone.  Empty slopes allowed some faster times on the runs. No Seventh Heaven, Tye mill or backside as they were understaffed.  A nice kicker was the price break for having a Snoq's season pass: $36 all up. TomK & Kerry.
