Pow day at meadows are 10x better than timberline because timberline is flat... Meadows spring park was fun and the jumps at meadows were bigger than the ones in conways.

From what I remember Mt Hood is a very tall mountain especially in the summer. It would appear the the bunch crew, finess crew, and the guys from that "Far Out" movie all go there to smoke blunts and start fights with people. If you go there make sure you don't stay past dark

Meadows = closed cascade, shooting star, and Heather
Ski Bowl = Rain and no snow
T-line = No vertical

It has been discussed, but here is how you do it.

Ski Bowl Night Pass- When it's nuking nothing beats the upper bowl vibe at Ski Bowl, also 3PM openings give you a hella good chance at afternoon freshies.

Meadows Season Pass- Reality is they have the most terrain, and higher elevation than Ski Bowl. Elevation is a huge factor at Hood. Semi crowded, but not like Tahoe/Colorado crowded. Quit bitching about a 5 minute lift line.

T-Line Spring pass- Often goes in to June. Lots of park. Killer corn out the west side of the permit.

If your main concern is park then just get a Fusion Pass.

We had a bad season. On a good season Ski bowl is good for powder, meadows is good for terrain and timberline is good for parks...

I think the corner was set up better than spring park...spring park didn't allow you to hit many features in one lap... the jumps may have been bigger, but I preferred the slightly smaller, but more natural feeling of conways jumps anyway.
Meadows has their pow day game dialed tho.

Foolish to try to compare apples to oranges. If I had the funds I would try to ride every chair in the state every year.

Amount of open vertical feet? And if we're gonna get technical the decrease in snow depth during the summer does the change the height of the mountain by the few feet.
