Ski Resort Closures
(Portland, OR) -- A difficult season is ending for Oregon's ski resorts. The snowpack is at a record low, due to warmer than normal temperatures. Hoodoo, outside Sisters, and Mt. Hood Ski Bowl are already closed. Mt. Hood Meadows and Mt Bachelor both plan to end their winter season on Sunday, April 19th. Timberline Lodge remains open, weather permitting. Bend's annual Pole, Pedal, Paddle sporting event, which starts on Bachelor in May, announced it would drop both the alpine and cross-country skiing portions of the five-sport race. Instead, athletes will participate in two running legs, still beginning on the mountain.
