Saga.Park is pretty fun. Snow levels are really low. It looks like late June/early July. Can't imagine Stormin Norman will be open much longer.
Shredde_McgnarHow's palmer though? How's the park up there?
john18061806Thinking about heading out for a trip in mid-june. I've been hearing good and bad things about the summer public park but I don't know who I can trust. Been hearing that there aren't many features, you have to hike if you want to lap, it's far away from the lift. Hoping that's all bull. Anyone with experience want to shed some light?
Paul.No park on palmer yet. Im assuming they are going to move public up to mile after WCS, but mile doesnt look like it is going to be lappable within the next few weeks.
roddy116should it still be good in two weeks?
OregonDeadCrew is doing all they can for you with the snow they have. IMO they are doing great work.
john18061806free jiberish to whoever updates this thread with pics
mantoastI'll try to get something up tomorrow! And as for July snow expect to hike rails unless you like to hike and ruin boots to the lift. Or it may already be up on the Palmer lane who knows!
Strange.Journey.well fuck sounds like hood is really struggling this year. hop they do better next year when i decide to head out
jackdonovanis the mike park the one set up in the summer on palmer? i am an east coaster and might be going to windells for a session if i can afford it, and the public park is usually pretty fun
ReeferMongaJah brotha. Stop by the Red house once you get there. Last house before Mt Hood (In government camp next to Chevron) and it's all occupied by newschoolers. Over fifteen of us, we'll smoke you out before you work day shift at Meadows. Just remember to start taking moles now, because we can give you the key homie, you just have to have the will power to turn it.... Mole hard, silent, and fast before you come.
Moles gave me flight, but took away the sky.....

Saga.The mile park is the park set up off the Mile chair lift. The only parks above the mile, accessed by the palmer chair lift, are the HCSC lap park, HCSC main park, Windells Park and MHSSC (right below HCSC main park).
Public park will undoubtedly be fun but you will likely not be able to lap it from the mile chair as the bottom loading area of the lift will be melted out. You will have to ski down, take off your skis and walk to the chair.
lelandsdadWill the public park have any jumps last week June thr middle July? If so any idea of the size? Also, will you have to hike the jumps/rails or is it viable to ski down and walk to the chair? Thanks!!
SnowshoeThompsonSetup on the mile so far is... interesting. If you're planning on coming you should probably come sooner than later unless they make the move up to Palmer.
Big_MtnI heard something about the possibility of a public park on palmer.... I don't know where on palmer, but thats what I heard.
Shredde_McgnarHave they done this before? This would save everything
Chubz.Flying out in 3 weeks. Starting to think buying a summers pass wont be worth it
mantoastHere's a little update, mile park got sweet, fun flowy surf feel to it, snow is dwindling you already have to hike about 7 towers down, or 200yards depending on how you hop patch to patch, windells lane is very dirty snow and the spot for the lower jump tow is already getting thin. As someone who has worked the summers up here, I dont think it will last past mid July. Hell even the ski racers are bailing end of June
jackdonovanwhat does dirty snow in the windells lane mean?
GANDALFAny report on ticket prices now that spring passes are done?
OregonDeadSpring passes are still good until June 7th. Perhaps the best birthday present ever. After the 7th I hear it will be $64 per day or $899 for the whole shebang.

Chubz.Jesus christ...
Timberline can suck my ass
eheathIt's been the same for like 6 or 7 years dude, maybe longer. When i went in 2008 tickets were like $49? i think and a summer pass was the same price, $899. The day pass price has gone up a couple bucks every year and honestly its not that bad IMO its the only place open, they could charge $100 if they wanted but they don't.
