Yes. 'Stick season' is the downtime between the end of foliage season and the Christmas holidays. The leaves are going/gone but ski season is yet to start.

OP just heard a cool phrase they didn't understand and made something up. ¯\_( ͡❛ ͜ʖ ͡❛)_/¯

Yep... by OP logic all of winter would be stick season!

There can be some skiing in stick season, but mostly for the diehards. It usually involves riding a lift back down to the base after doing laps on man-made snow on some upper mountain lift.
