ok so its only may and im already going crazy fiending for some snowboarding. up until just recently i had never really even thought about summer riding. i guess i had just sort of resigned myself to the fact that it was a winter sport. but recently i was thinking about trying to plan a trip to south america because i dont know if i can keep going all summer without riding. but everything i saw was so expensive. is there any chance of riding somewhere for an affordable price in the summer or is it pretty much gonna be like a $3k trip no matter what? theres no chance of me going anywhere this summer but i guess im just wondering if i wanted to start saving for next summer possibly what is my best bet as far as affordability?

Timberline in Oregon runs summer hours on their glacier from 7ish a.m. - 1:30 p.m.

PM or allow snowolf to give you more info.

Mt Hood!! I spent 2200, but I'm going to windells for a week. so I imagine if you weren't going to camp you could prolly price it out cheaper, and ride at timberline?

dude, its pretty much a winter sport. even with south america, NZ, hood and blackcomb the airfare alone is around 1k (out of my area anyway)

do what i do and pick up a summer sport, like drinking.

here is the link to my trip to timberline in May. The place looks like it should be a blast in summer. You could always give it a shot if you're that desperate for snow.
