Open till sometime in late August, lift tickets are 50 but a season pass is only 800 if your staying a long time. Public park is good.

public park is open til mid august and is pretty good. it becomes hike only near the end of july.
lift tickets are $52 per day i believe (the timberline site has all the info)
the airstrip near trillium lake has free camping. dont know about motorhomes though...

most of this info can be found with a simple google search of "timberline lodge" or by searchbarring. just out of curiosity, why are you going to hood when whis has its own glacier?

Timberline parking lot has overnight parking. Pretty sure you can park your RV there. I think they are repaving the parking lot though (thought i read that somewhere), so that might make things interesting.

Public park is pretty sick right now, jumps are shaped really well and they still have alot of snow to move anyways, so it should be prime in about a week.

tickets are 54 bucks, there are plenty of places to park your RV and public park is sick right now. 6 jumps and a lot of boxes/rails

Actually a lot of people in Whistler are riding in our basic camp. Building a terrain park the size and quality of ours in the middle of the summer, on top of a glacier, is not cheap. But all you have to do is save money by not going to the bar, or buying coffee or whatever else drains your disposable income and shred with us instead.
