Summit Meadow Cabins at Trillium Basin

Trip Rating:  All Abilities Ski
Basecamp:  Mt. Hood area, OR

Here’s your chance to stay on Mt. Hood and ski many of its trails without having to drive down the mountain at the end of the day or fight the weekend crowds.  Skiing choices without driving include many of the trails in the Trillium basin and Government Camp area or driving to Bennett Pass, Twin Lakes, or Teacup Nordic, etc.  See our Trails and Maps page for info on Mt. Hood ski areas.  While this is an all ability ski, the group usually divides into two ski groups, one doing intermediate to advanced backcountry skiing and the other doing easy to intermediate. 

 We will stay three nights in a house with two bedrooms and a loft, which will accommodate all participants.   The house is about ½ mile from the Trillium Sno-Park and participants must be able to ski or snowshoe to the house carrying their own personal clothing, personal beverages and lunch food.  We will cook communally for breakfasts and dinners, lunches will be on your own.  The food brought for communal meals will be pulled in on two sleds.

Trip Limit:  8 participants, including trip leader
Cost: $90 per member for 3 nights. Additional expenses include a trail fee if you choose Teacup or Meadows Nordic, Sno-Park permits for drivers and cost of food you provide for communal meals and lunches.
Carpool miles:  110 miles roundtrip from Portland, plus any mileage to ski areas out of the Trillium/Government Camp area.
