Trip to Mount Hood

Last month we went to Mount Hood and was greeted with 12 inches of new snow. They now had a snow base of 152 inches. This photo is looking from the front of the lodge, but the photo below is looking toward the back!

This lodge is over 5 stories tall. Here we are looking from one icicled window to another!

Mount Hood is the only mountain in the lower 48 that has skiing year round. Olympians train here during the summer months.

Like both of these photographs. Can't begin to imagine 152 inches of snow.
