The last day of camp.  Summer has flown by so quickly that it’s hard to believe it’s the last on-snow day and camp is ending.   After having such a great progression session yesterday, I headed back to HCSC to finally dial in some tricks that I wanted.  Not to say that I couldn’t do [...]

When it comes to snowboarding at Mt Hood, there is only one camp that’s 100% snowboarders and that’s High Cascade Snowboard Camp located right next to Windells on the mountain.  I had the opportunity earlier this summer to check out HCSC when Snowboarder Magazine came to town and I had a blast riding there for [...]

I have a rad schedule that [...]

Summer flies by when you are having fun and with session 7 already here, it brings the last snowboard session of the summer for Windells Camp.  I didn’t know what I was getting into when I came out here but sometimes the unknown and unexpected ends up being a great surprise of new experiences and [...]

It’s the weekend for Windells Camp which means most of the staff disperses to the coast or into the woods and Timberline has less people so it’s the perfect time for getting up to ride.  Public park is still holding up with a jump line and rail features but the only downside is the hike [...]
