Hit up Mt Hood and camp when they have the park on Auto Lang. The later in the summer the worse the public park is.

Well its not really a "Camp" but the Breckenridge fourth of july bowl i heard is way legit, it has snow for most of the summer and theres a rail garden that people set up... its free so all you need its a 4 wheel drive car to get up

MHSSC is the cheapest(half the price of windells), best environment for learners, no lines in the park, THE closest campus to mt hood(5 miles from government camp). And everyones so yippidy about seeing pros, there always around on the hill in the public park AND in MHSSC's park, cuz we got the best triple jump lline.

here's a link to a good thread ith alot info on mhssc

Camps are beyond expensive. I don't know why anyone would even consider paying that much. You could spend less to go to South America or New Zealand.

Let me do some math:
Momentum cost (9 days)= ~$2500 USD (non local)

Retun flight to NZ = $1000US
Season Pass = $400US
Rent and Food for 2 months=$1000 US

Dunno about you, but i would rather ski 60 days than 9 and have it cost me less... I mean you could spend probably $1000 more and spend a whole season in New Zealand. If you got a part time job it would be even less (which is what most people do).

Well, Ohio Dreams is $850 for a week long session which is a lot less compared to most of the other camps. You're not on snow, but with water ramps, an olympic tramp, and a full summer rail setup you can learn a ton of stuff. Plus there are two sick skate parks with a foam pit and dirt trails if you are in to biking or skating.
