Weekend day-trips

to Mt. Hood ski areas

Come ski with us, almost any Saturday or Sunday.

Unfortunately, there is no way of knowing if our members will go skiing on any particular day.  The one exception is on our PACRAT race days (Sundays). On race days, you can be sure that over 140 of our members will be on the mountain. Those are just our racers. But, many other friends and family members show up too, just to ski with us. Everyone is invited, including non-racers.

The race itself takes up only a few minutes of our time. A whole 10-person team can get down the race course in about 5 minutes. The rest of the time, we just ski for fun.

Meet at McDonald's in Sandy (left at 3rd traffic light in Sandy) around 7:00 - 7:15 am. You might find us either in the parking lot, or inside McDonald's, getting a cup of coffee. From there, we can either carpool or caravan to the ski area.  For info, contact Emilio, info@mthigh.org, or 1-503-378-0171 (a Salem number).

On the mountain, meet us around 9:00 am near the ticket office, outside, or find us on Channel 6-19.  Just ask for "Mountain High" people!

Racers: See more details on our Racing page.

Invitation:   Non-racers, please come ski with the racers!

Racers, please come ski with non-racers on day trips even when there is no race going on!  Let's carpool! Stop in Sandy!

NW Ski Challenge 2011/2012

Would you like to win a 10-time pass to Mt. Hood Meadows?  Or some other prize? And all you have to do is have some fun visiting as many ski areas in the Northwest as possible, and keep your lift tickets or recipts.

The 2011-2011 ski season will be the seventh year of the NWSCC Ski Challenge. For the past 6 years the Council has rewarded skiers and snowboarders who have met the Challenge with gift certificates for equipment or services at ski shops, and one lucky winner each year goes home with a ten-time pass to Mt. Hood Meadows.

The first year of our Challenge was to visit all the Oregon ski resorts. The second year we expanded the Challenge with the addition of Washington ski resorts. The third year, we added Idaho ski resorts. Then we made it super-easy, with a minimum requirement of skiing just 7 ski areas within the three NW States.

This year, the Council is challenging skiers and snowboarders to ski the Northwest again, The Northwest Ski Challenge rules are as follows:

Ski or ride any 7 or more resorts in Oregon, Washington and/or Idaho during the 2011-2012 ski season to be eligible to win a prize.  This time it is not a race for the most resorts visited. Anyone who visits at least 7 ski resorts is the eligible to enter. Save your lift tickets and/or receipts as proof.

Info & entry forms: Ski Oregon Challenge flyer (PDF)

You can order a shirt with Challenge logo and/or a map of either Oregon, or Washington, or Idaho, or all 3 States, showing the location of all the ski areas.

Just save your lift tickets and/or credit card receipts from the lift ticket purchase, and mail this in before June 15. Please print and fill out the entry form. Mail your entry to the NWSCC, Po Box 1915, Portland, OR 97207.

Winners will be announced at the July NWSCC meeting, and the grand prize will be awarded to the skier or boarder who visits the most Northwest ski areas during the season.

Several of our past winners have kept very informative and colorful blogs and photos of their experiences as they skied and rode at Northwest ski areas the last three seasons.

Read about each ski area, and about our experiences there, for inspiration:

Anthony Lakes trip
a Mt. High bus trip

January 20 - 22, 2012.

2 days/ 2 nights. A fun bus trip. Leave Friday at 4 pm, return Sun. night.

Anthony Lakes is the ski area with the highest base in Oregon, at 7,000' (which is a a thousand feet higher than Timberline Lodge), so the snow is guaranteed and the powder light & dry. The old base lodge was featured in the movie "Paint Your Wagon" back in the '60s!

Lodging:

The first night we will stay at the Wildhorse Indian Casino Resort near Pendleton. You will have time to gamble away some of your money! The next morning we'll drive straight to the ski area, about an hour and a half away. Breakfast is on your own, either at the casino or at A-Lakes.

The second night we'll stay at the Eldorado motel in Baker City, the city closest to Anthony Lakes. While the Eldorado isn't fancy (their motto is "we only LOOK expensive,") they have a pool and a complimentary breakfast, including waffles.

Dinner: When we come back from skiing on Saturday we'll change and load up on the bus again for a very special dinner at the Haines Steak House, the best for miles around. Your dinner and soft drinks are included, with a choice of prime rib, BBQ pork ribs, or halibut, as well as the fabulous salad bar. Appetizers, desserts, or alcoholic beverages are on your own. Vegetarians or light eaters who just want the salad bar will pay $10 less for the trip.

Skiing: Sunday morning we will load up the bus to go ski at Anthony Lakes. There is just one chairlift, a triple, so you can't lose anyone -- but you won't lack for great skiing off that one chair!, which covers about 180 degrees of the mountain. We always have a fantastic time at A-Lakes!

Snowcat skiing: Depending upon whether Mother Nature smiles on us, Anthony Lakes will offer our group half days of snowcat skiing on either Saturday or Sunday for only $60 additional! This should allow anyone on our trip who is interested to participate on one of the two days. Linda McGavin is taking names of those interested, but no payment will be made until the time of the trip, when we are certain that they will be able to offer the snowcat (they usually start about that time of year). A total of 12 people can sign up on any one day, and we will need to let Anthony Lakes know how many extra spots they could sell to the public. So get your name in early to be on the list!  Contact Linda McGavin.

Price: $230 for transportation, 2 nights’ lodging, 2 days lift tickets, one dinner, and one breakfast.

Good news for those over 70 - you will receive free skiing, and your total trip cost will only be $175, including the fantastic dinner at the Haines Steak House (choice of prime rib, rib eye, or halibut, plus their amazing salad bar)!

Use Dough Transmittal form to send $100 deposit, due by November 15. Full payment due by December 20. No refunds after December 20 unless you can fill your spot.
