Stevens was ridiculous today. Report said 10" and there was, on the groomed and windward slopes. More than double that elsewhere thanks to the constant 20+ mph wind. Snow stayed dry all day, nobody...

Mt. Pilchuck Ski and Sports and Sturtevants both used to have demo days at Stevens. I believe Pilchuck went out of business last year and a sales guy at Sturtevants said they won't be doing any this...
