Gorgeous photo!

(I thought stick season was after fall foliage but before winter during no-snow-November, no? )

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 ͡❛)_/¯

Downvote me but I’ve lived in VT all my life and never heard of stick season till some guy sang about it to flatlanders. I’ve heard of mud season, but am unfamiliar with this stick season people from CT grumble about l.

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.

I believe the season you’re looking for here is “winter”. It’s very local Vermont lingo so I get why it may seem a little foreign. Welcome!
