Meadows Installs New High Speed Lift

September 29, 2011 By Marsha

Just in time for Winter Camp, Mt. Hood Meadows is installing a new high speed quad at their main base area. The Stadium Char, now better known as Stadium Express, will give skiers and snowboarders easier access to the north side of the mountain, which means no more pushing and unstrapping to get over to Forest Park and Park Place!

Meadows has always been the go to mountain after a heavy snow storm. With the addition of another high speed quad, this means more powder runs for all of us as soon as the snow starts falling. Windells Winter Campers have the luxury of getting to know the terrain of Meadows, Timberline, and Ski Bowl all during one session. This year campers will be the first ones to try out the new Stadium Express lift as 2011 comes to an end. What can be better than skiing and snowboarding while you count down to 2012. Come celebrate the New Year with us at Windells this winter, and see the new Stadium Express lift for yourself!

April 26, 2011 By Marsha

While ski resorts across the nation are packing up and ending the season, Mt. Hood is getting more snow than ever! Timberline sent over this picture of Palmer, and yes, the chairlift is completely buried. Talk about a lot of snow! Mt. Hood Meadows set records this month for the most snowfall in April with over 4ft in just the first week. The storms keep hitting and it doesn’t look like the snow will stop anytime soon. You know what this means right? Even more snow for our park during the summer months!

Spots are filling up fast, so hurry up and fill out your registration! We know you want a taste of that record breaking snow.
