A great SNOWMO season comes to an end

It was a great snowmobile season here on Mt. Hood. Mt. Hood Adventure grew by leaps and bounds this year! Entering our fourth year we had a newly expanded Forest Service Permit, moved into our new digs on the second floor of the Ratskeller Building downtown Government Camp, opened up our retail shop, and became an official Visitor Information Center for Oregon's Mt. Hood Territory. We are sad to see the season come to an end.

Even though there is still a lot of snow on the mountain, the quality of the snow and the trails for snowmobiling has really deteriorated. It is now getting really bumpy and sloppy. The quality of the tours is not what we would want to present to our guests, so we have decided to call it a season. You can still rent snowshoes and have a great time out in the woods.

We are busy preparing our summer calendar and ordering new equipment. We are excited about our new kayaks to join our fleet of canoes. This summer you will be able to rent canoes, kayaks, and bikes from us at Mt. Hood Adventure. Stop on in and let us help take care of all of your summer mountain recreation and vacation needs!

The Adventure Goes On

Mt. Hood Adventure is up to the task! The freezing level is heading down to the 800 ft. level this coming week. We would never have thought that we would have mid-winter type tours going on in mid-April. Chopper is still going strong with the Snow Mos and the snow shoes are still renting like crazy.  What a spring. Why not bring your mom up for a cooooool snowmobile tour in MAY! What a surprise that would be.

And the Winter Continues

Is it ever going to stop?!?!?! Our record breaking winter is still here on Mt. Hood. Our snowmobile tours are still going strong. Our sister company, Mt. Hood Skibowl has something like 208 inches of snow STILL ON THE GROUND! This is the most snow in a season since the late 1800's!!!! It is incredible. We are offering 20% off of snowmobile tours if you can find it in yourself to come up and give it a try. It is like a mid-winter trip! We are also having some great sales in our shop right now, including the sale of some of our rental snow shoes. This is the time of year to get them, so if you want a great deal on some snowshoes of your own, now is your chance. Check out our website at http://www.mthoodadventure.com or give us a call at 503-272-3062. We are looking forward to taking you out on a great spring trip!
