OUR CAMPUS

Windells Ski Camp operates on the grounds of Wy’east Mountain Academy, a 28-acre private campus that provides endless options for activities and entertainment, in addition to world-class training opportunities. Our campus is located at the base of Mt. Hood off HWY 26 in beautiful Welches, Oregon, tucked away from traffic, the city, and the distractions of being in town.

Parents can rest easy knowing that Windells campers stay in a tobacco- and alcohol-free environment and are supervised around the clock by friendly, helpful, and trained staff members. Our entire campus is private, and campers aren’t permitted to leave camp boundaries unless under SuperVision™.

 

NEW DRYSLOPE & AIRBAG - COMING SUMMER 2025!

Under construction now, this best-in-the world dryslope and airbag is designed by Banger Bags, Austria. For summer 2025, campers will have the option, for an additional fee, to utilize this Olympic training feature. The jump size will vary from 30 feet (for most people) up to 60 feet with 100+ feet to the sweet spot! This feature will progress freeskiing and you are invited to be one of the few in the world able to ride such an Olympic training feature.

Want to hit it this fall? Team training slots available fall 2024 or enroll as a student at Wy’East Mountain Academy.

B.O.B. – THE BUILDING OUT BACK

We are excited to announce that our indoor skatepark has been completely revamped! The old wooden ramps have been replaced with concrete and there are two Olympic-sized FlyBed trampolines, a super tramp, and an airbag, which are perfect for dialing in aerial maneuvers off snow. You won’t want to miss out on what the new building has to offer!

You can call this the hub of camp. The Courtyard is the grass field at the center of camp and is a great place to relax and socialize with friends, both new and old.
