I have family that lives in Canby,Or next time I visit i'm going to make sure it's in season, Mt Hood looks amazing.

When does Mt. Hood Meadows usually close?

Meadows is usually open through May and of course Timberline is open all summer except for about 2 to 3 weeks in September for maintenance. If you don`t mind hiking for your turns, there is good riding here and on other Cascade mountains like Mt. Adams all summer.

This is way off topic from the OP, but is there really 12 month riding at timberline?
