Windells doesn't have a "public park" ...you pay for a session of camp (a week of camp) and that provides you with a week of skiing Windells park. I think it is very worth it, but everyone is different. "You get out of camp what you put into it"

might you be referring to the timberline/mt hood meadows public park? There are 3 parks on mount hood as far as i know:

Windells (private)
High Cascade camp (snowboard/private)
meadows public park

not sure on the actual name of the public park but it is REAL dope for a summer park. like a 5 jump line with a few 50 footers and tonnsa jibs. the windells campers even take trips in there every once and a while.

There is a timberline public park, thats probably what your friends were talking about. It doesn't touch the quality of the windells private shit tho.

Hey Scott we don't offer a public park at camp, only the private camp park. In 2005/06 we launched "Pro Camp", which was a stripped down version of camp that only included lift tickets, park access and lunch. It was the first product of it's kind for sumer camps and was a huge success at first. However consistent bad behavior, high ratio of injuries, and a crowded park led us to change "Pro Camp" into what we now call the "No Coach" option, which is basically it's the full camp package, minus coaching.

Some camps are still running with our idea and offer a Pro Camp option, I recommend checking out some camp websites to see who offers what.

mt hood meadows is a completely different resort. not open in the summer. There's windells private park. MHSSC park (private), HCSC (private) and the public park.

$52 for a day ticket. Lifts are open from 7am-130 2 ish. You can hike the pub park till 330 then they kick you out. Very worth it and the parks are amazing. If your there at the right time public park can range from 15-60 foot booters. with lots of rails as well.

lift tickets were $53 a day last summer,
probably more expensive this year.
anddd im pretty sure
the windells park is private, like campers, coaches only?
but its pretty fun, other people just go until they get kicked out usually.
but don't bother going to hood in the summer if you're not riding
in the windells park...the public park is shit in the summer.
