So Timberline is open from 7:30 - 3:00, but the lifts are only open until 1:30 and then you have to hike up the mountain from then on?

Sorry for all the questions but i'm just confused which resort hours were mentioned.

Snowolf

Right now it`s 9:00 AM till 3:00 PM but after the end of May, they go to summer hours. The lifts begin running at 7:30 AM (Magic Mile and Palmer)and Palmer stops running at 1:30 PM. They run the Mile for the sightseeing tourists untill 3:00 PM so they keep the park open untill then, but you have to hike it. At 3:00 PM you can download on Magic Mile back to the parking lot. You can also ride back if there is enough snow which this year should be no problem.

Oh. Okay. Hmmmmm thats kind of a bummer though. Still sounds worth the 7:30-1:30 boarding.

How are crowds up there usually in the summer? Because with an early end to the day(1:30), how many runs do you really get?

Snowolf

Not crowded at all. You rarely wait more than a minute at the Palmer lift. You will get enough runs in that you will be ready to call it a day at the end.
