Out here in Government Camp, OR we live the slow life until 10 a.m. when Timberline Lodge opens its summer terrain park to the public, and ride hard until 3 p.m. when they shut it down. Last week the Timberline crew served up a playful park with a two-jump line, a couple of hips and a handful of rails that rolled right back into the loading station of the Palmer chairlift.
On previous trips to Mt. Hood I focused my lens on High Cascade Snowboard Camp, but until this trip I didn’t realize that, despite the good times on offer at High Cascade, camp wasn’t necessary to enjoy riding the volcano. After a few days with the locals, it became readily-apparent that I’d failed to notice a great deal of what’s possible atop this summer snowboarding kingdom.
It’s the other side of Timberline, a side that shouldn’t be overlooked.
