They've had a pipe every year...

...keep your fingers crossed due to low snow levels.

I went to Camp Revolution a few years back when Evan Dybvig was still in his first couple years of running it (and it's since then died out).

The nice part about it was that I was old enough to be able to leave, and do what I felt like doing. They didn't babysit like some of the other camps, mainly because they were so understaffed and the Phils could have cared less who did what...as long as we were on the mountain the next day.

Regardless, you'll have a good time.

^ Abscratch, I think you definitely need to do a bit more research before you make the trip out to Mt. Hood.

Timberline Lodge is the ski area that's open year-round due to the Palmer Glacier.

See www.timberlinelodge.com for more information.

You need to come up with a serious plan, ie: Transportation for the Portland airport to Timberline, paying for the trip as well as lodging.

there are two public lanes. one just open one, and one with the park. if there is alot of snow (prolly not this year), there are some other faces off to the side you can hit, but they are out of bounds. camps each have their own lanes, but all requrie hiking. its usually sunny and sick, and it will be awesome just because you are skiing, but get friendly with people at the camps so you can get in

^ Regardless of how friendly you are with those attending camps, you're not going to ski in their lanes. They let you ski within their lanes only AFTER YOU PAY THEM MONEY. Camps are not free. So please, don't count on skiing in the Windells park because you're sucking somebody's dick. Well, maybe.

i herd that they got a fair amount of snow around the end of spring break so that would help with base levels as far as the pipe goes, i guess that all just depends how much snow they have by then and as i said they did get a bit so hopefully it will be enough

well, as to my knowledge...the only person we let into our half pipe at Camp Revolution was Danny Kass...but I guess he's pro or some shit ;-)
