Mount Hood Meadows has been my home resort for three years now. Heres the good the bad and the ugly. Terrain: good to great, some of the best steeps in the state. Smaller, but more challenging than Bachelor. The bad: we get tons and tons of snow from November to May, but unfortunately a lot of it is heavy. And we even get the unlucky rainy period from time to time. Check the weather! The ugly: weekend crowds can fill up the parking lots early (get there before it opens) and often they are unable to get all the lifts running (sometimes due to weather and wind speed).

They just added a new lift that will hopefully be faster and more efficient. They are very park friendly, especially at the beginning of the season. And the tree runs are very good. Off piste powder is very nice

Meadows offers steep slopes and advanced terrain to those seeking it. Heather and Clark canyons provide black and double black off piste terrain, though they are not always open. The main drawback to Mt hood meadows is the crowds, and lift lines can often be a long wait during busy days. Try HRM or Shooting star lifts to avoid some of the lines at the main lifts.

Good experience also being a beginner skier. Options for eating out is good. Good runs.

We love to go to Mt hood meadows due to the professional staff, always safe conditions and wonderful atmosphere. We like to train and have fun there.

This resort is good if your a ski racer the parks are alright if your looking for better parks that go over to timber line.but meadows is a great place to learn to ski
