This is the thread for everything Mt Hood Summer Ski Camp, with a title that's easy to find using the searchbar.
MHSSC is summer skiing for half the price of Windell's, with good food, good coaches, and good homies. We don't put pressure on you and we don't ridicule you for not being as good. I should know. I was a camper and now work as a counselor. We do everything we can to make sure everyone has a fun time and learns some cool stuff. That's what we're about. Website is: www.mthood.com

If you want a comparison to Windell's, check out this thread:
https://www.newschoolers.com/ns/forums/readthread/thread_id/532284/

Everything else goes in here. Share your stoke, general questions, and what session you're going. I'll be checking this thread daily and answering questions. Point of this thread is to spread the stoke and get more information out there.

Hope to see some of you this summer!

Honestly though, MHSSC was the best week i've ever had.

Although, a small tow rope for the rails would make MHSSC's park a lot better. HINT HINT
Don't like hiking, and it's a shame because their park is really good for learning

Ok so I was camper staff for a week last year but it was a bit of an on the spot kind of deal. basically i just got there and wanted to stay longer without paying, and they let me. super chill. anyway, I was just wondering when / how to reapply for the upcoming summer. (2014)

I still can't get over how bootleg their website it. It's hilarious hahaha. Foreal though, MHSSC is awesome if I haven't said that enough.

CAMPERS, if you decide to go to MHSSC, be sure to avoid Patrick Foster at all costs. He is a creepy dude that lives in a van down by the river. He preys on young racer girls and claims he is a coach when he is really not so he can slay the young fresh poo-tang

i had a pretty mediocre time there. The food was awesome, the coaches were good, and the tramp was fun. But there was definitly some dicks who gave me shit  for my skill. i made a couple  freinds who i still have today but a lot of the people there were dicks. it also sucks having to hike all the time without a rope tow. The guys in my cabin also were talking about masturbating and how they were all getting unwanted boners until like 2:00 in the morning which is fuckin weird.

Anyone planning on going this year? I'm gonna do 2 weeks to redeem myself after breaking my leg on the first day last year and breaking my arm this year and missing the rest of the winter season. I really need to reign in my recklessness until I have tricks dialed in 100%.

Really considering going this summer, but need to improve my grades. Whats the latest I could possibly sign up? And would it be worth going to learn park as a whole? I ski big mountain for the most part, and can't ski park at all, but really want to learn.

I could be wrong, but I believe you have to sign up one month before you go, and the latest session starts august 17th so the very latest to sign up is july 17th.

Got the official word yesterday: I'll be there 4-14. Going big this year. Snowpack is back to normal too, so if we can avoid another early hot spell like last year's, it should be way sicker.

Care to elaborate? I find it hard to believe anybody could have a bad time skiing in the summer unless they got injured

Sounds like someone wasn't doing their job. I'm sorry about that. Generally, we squash any hating that might be going on. I always tell my kids to come to me if they're not stoked about something. Next time, talk to me or Mike and Lynne.

Labor Day weekend is usually the end of summer operations, even on shitty snow years, and we're actually looking pretty good right now. Might actually be above average snowpack after the precip this week.

Sorry I should have phrased that question better... how long will mhssc be lift accessible? i read in the windells v mhssc that you have to hike the park after a certain point. I wouldn't mind hiking but i would prefer the park being lift accessible.

Once the cat track that connects the bottom of our park and Windell's park to the public park melts out, then you have to hike back to the top of our park to get out. When that happens is impossible to predict at this point.
