Berne: US 2 at MP 64.3: West Stevens Pass - Ski Lodge
Stevens Pass combines the scale of a major cross-Cascade highway with the seclusion of dense conifer forest, reflecting its position on the crest of Washington’s Cascade Range. US Route 2 crosses the pass at 4,061 feet, connecting the communities of western Washington with the Wenatchee Valley and points east. The route follows a historic transportation corridor through steep mountain terrain and is named for railroad engineer John Frank Stevens. Stevens Pass Ski Area lies nearby, while the surrounding national-forest landscape is defined by firs, hemlocks and rugged ridgelines. This is a working mountain crossing rather than a remote back road, with the highway forming an important link across the Cascades.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
