senor_niksI'm going to hood from June 14th - 28th. Should the park still be worth $ I'm saving to get over there during that period?

Caveman.It should be.
I am amazed at how much it has melted every week. It is already a shorter hike to hike the park than to walk out to the base of the Mile.
With that being said, Timberline and the park crew are doing a fantastic job keeping things going. I have heard rumors that the public park may go into the High Cascade lap lane this season but those are just rumors.
June 14th should be good, who knows what June 28th will look like though.
senor_niksAre there and will be any jumps up?
senor_niksBump?
Miclovinbump
DINKLEBERGMile is walk on - walk off. Hike is vicious, but Palmer laps are all time
iantheunderdogWait so palmers lap able? And Public is hike only rn?
DINKLEBERGCorrect
iantheunderdogDoes each camp has its own lift or does palmer have a main lift. Im going to mhssc and im curios if only windells has a lift.
Miclovinwill they be moving the park to palmer soon??

TheGreenRoomHi,
From what my data has told me, the current conditions at timberline bear much resemblance of that of summer skiing...
Hope that helps
Paul.Went up today, Public is now where HCSC lap park usually is. Lots of rails but no jumps. Pretty fun setup for hiking though, and the hike from the bottom of the park over to palmer isn't that bad yet.
hoodcrewHCSC lap park isn't running this summer, park is super fun, kinda some smaller rails but everything is jibby and flawy, whole mtn is skiing super fun too
brett_fisherDang they don't let windells hit there rails tho are they making the pipe ?
-peteduncan-Does anyone know if they are going to make jumps in public?
MadSteezinMt. Hood erupted this morning at around 9 AM. Ashes everywhere here in Hood River.

DINKLEBERGThey just put in a very interesting pair of hip jumps. They aren't very big, but are very fun!

The hike back to the bottom of Palmer is very mellow, and makes for fairly quick laps if you aren't into the hike life.

OregonDeadWeb says it is 81 degrees up there right now. Yikes, the snow must be getting cooked. It's supposed to be even hotter tomorrow.
Big_MtnThe pipe is up there. There are 5 parks... Lap park (upper rope tow, Windells and HCSC). Windells (below lap park, just windells, no HCSC). HCSC (Next to Windells and lap park, Windells snowboarders and HCSC). Public park (way over to the left of palmer, just rails but still pretty sick). MHSSC (No idea where it is but I think I heard there are jumps).
brett_fisherI heard that you have to download now bc there isn't enough snow to ski down at windells i am not sure till what time but we skied after the chair closed on the windells rope tow and you just skied down after the chair closed and in the later sessions you had to hike like 5 mins down i heard so now at windells can you only ski till 4 when the chair closed so there won't be the extra hr or 2 of skiing at windells???
Paul.Youve had to download for the past few weeks now, and most windells kids are gone by like 3 because palmer closes at 2.
