Snow-capped and serene, Mount Hood is surrounded by an immense national forest, making it the perfect area for snowsports, trekking, and other recreational activities.
Mount Hood is home to four ski areas, including historic
Timberline Lodge, a classic WPA-era mountain lodge, which also happens to offer North America’s longest ski season and
Mt. Hood Ski Bowl, which offers the country’s largest night skiing area.
At 11,249 feet, Mount Hood overlooks the awe-inspiring Columbia River Gorge.
