Here it is. The seecond installment of our Employee Scavenger Hunt. Our staff is amazing. They come from all over the country to live life in Mt. Hood with Windells Camp. Once August starts to slip away, they all eventually have to go back to reality and back to their roots. As winter keeps on trucking, our employees are building parks, taking classes, teaching lessons, and just about everything you can think of to pass the time until summer comes back into our lives.
Session 4 sure was a blast, and how could it not have been with the likes of Nick Visconti, Curtis Woodman, Jason Robinson and Stevie Bell hanging around. The single largest and longest knockout games ever recorded went down, some pretty incredible skate sessions happened in BOB and the Concrete Jungle and we all shredded one of the funnest on hill parks to date!
Don’t forget about the campers! They have been out there killing it too!

Everyone give a warm welcome to our new head digger Chase Weaver! He has been working around the clock to make sure our park is the best one out there. Get excited folks; new for this summer are freshly designed features from Kab Rails. We can’t wait to get them on hill. The Digger Crew is finishing our signature blue paint job and making those final touches. Three more weeks and our lucky Session 1 campers get to break in the new park. Let the countdown begin.
Want to see the rails for yourself this summer? Well then sign up! Don’t forget, the first 120 campers to sign up and pay in full for Sessions 1 or 2 gets a FREE RED HELMET! Pretty sweet deal. If Sessions 1 and 2 don’t work for you, no problem. Give us a call in the office to hear about other discounts you may be eligible for. Click to register, fill out the paperwork, pack your bags, and see you on the hill!

While the sun was shining and the temperature hovered at a nice 67 degrees, Windells hit California with a burst of winter air. SkiDazzle kicked off the season with the largest ski and snowboard consumer show in the nation! As shoppers hurried to find the best deals on this year’s equipment, Windells was dishing out stickers and offering free progression sessions to eager beginners of all ages.
Windells Media Team has released 3 new energy packed edits from this past summer, keeping the summer stoke high as another epic Winter is upon us – filling our Private Lane on Hood with record amounts of snow! Another Sold Out Summer coming up!
If you did not have the chance to check out Tom Wallisch on Fuel Tv’s FirstHand a month ago or so, it is now available to watch on Hulu.com. One piece of Tom’s lifestyle they did not portray in the episode, is that he spends summers at Windells learning, coaching and having fun! And, 2 of the Windells Filmers, Tyler Malay and Jake Strassman helped out filming the show…Great Job!
Here is a video recap from 2 Summers ago of Wallisch at Windells, a little more exciting then the tv show.
In my opinion, which is obviously bias, Windells has the most talented ski coaching lineup ever! On top of having the most progressive coaches, the private parks and lifts at Windells are frequented by the highest level of athletes of all time, it blows my mind!
I want to take this time to thank all coaches and guests (including campers) for contributing to Windells, and helping make it THE FUNNEST PLACE ON EARTH. Below are some of my favorite photos from the past summer. (and thanks to our sponsors too)
