Along with having all 4 seasons, we also have all 4 terrains. To the west there is the Pacific Ocean. To the east we have a desert. To the north all the way to the heart we have mountains. In the south and just about everywhere else we have forests full of trees, lakes, and rivers… If you like the outdoors, you would like Oregon… There is always something to do.

Snowboarding competitions, camera shoots, and pros are found here on a daily basis… Also America’s largest night-ski area Mt. Hood Ski bowl, and last but not least, Timberline Four season resort.
