Mount Hood, Oregon

Timberline Lodge

Timberline combines a historic lodge, the Wy'East Day Lodge and skiing on Mount Hood. Winter terrain and summer snowfield skiing are different experiences, with lift openings tied to weather and snow. The mountain's height is not the same as the highest lift-served skiing point.

  • Historic lodge and separate Wy'East day facilities
  • Bruno's Chair learning access
  • Different winter and summer ski operations

Terrain and ability at Timberline Lodge

Bruno's Chair supports learning access, and group-lesson tickets have specified terrain limits that include Summit Pass. The larger winter mountain has groomers, trees and parks. Summer skiing uses a different operating plan, so do not assume a winter lesson or full trail map is available year-round.

Getting to Timberline Lodge

From Portland Airport, follow US-26 east through Sandy, Welches and Government Camp, then turn onto Timberline Road for the 6 miles to the lodge; from Hood River, take OR-35 south to US-26 west. Expect snow and ice on the mountain passes, and when chains are required, fit them at the next chain-up area rather than stopping in the highway. A public transit bus serves communities along Highway 26 from Sandy to Timberline; check ODOT TripCheck before leaving.

Arrival, bases and lessons

Adult lesson check-in is at the school front desk on the first floor of Wy'East Day Lodge, with rental fitting afterward. Kids Club has its own desk there. Use the current mountain report and winter driving instructions before traveling up from Government Camp.

Plan a meetup at Timberline Lodge

Specify Wy'East Day Lodge or historic Timberline Lodge in the invitation. Meet near the school desk before rentals, then agree on a lodge break after the lesson. Friends visiting Summit Pass or summer terrain should confirm their own access and return arrangement.

Use the meetup message planner for Timberline Lodge to agree on your date, terrain, pace and meeting point.
