Let's just say this: You're going to have a tough time going to Windell's if you don't go to Timberline, too. Timberline is the ski resort where Windell's has its on-snow park.

Or perhaps you're referring to the Timberline freestyle camps?

Yeah, I don't think he actually owns it, the Timberline camp is run by the ski area, more specifically it's run out of the ski school. That camp is directed more towards beginner/intermediate park riders. You will have your own park with really no one in it, the set up is small- medium, nothing over 30 feet for sure. and then if you are confortable with that stuff, you can move into the public park which is right next to the private park. You do get to stay in the Lodge whch is nice.

Windells is going to have the best off hill activities skating, dryslope, tramps etc.

Check out Mt Hood Summer Ski Camp (MHSSC) as well, they have their own park too,

I spent last May riding Timberline and the public park was sick.  I think there were 8 jumps ad plenty of rails.  The weather was shit so I couldn't see what was going on with the camps but for 99$ it was awesome! I would recommend it to everyone

Well...You could ride both! Timberlines public park is normally okay until July...There is usually enough snow to be able to ski down to the lodge and what not in the middle of July. 

If you want to be able to ride Windells Lane too, you could pay for Pro-Camp which gives you access during 6 days of a normal camp session and lift tickets which many know are EXPENSIVE.

This does mean you will have to provide yourself transportation to and from the mountain.  Say you moved out and lived in Govy for the summer, this would be ideal for that.
