Hello I Just Moved Here from Denver!

Post by SarahDeeCee » February 11th, 2023, 7:43 pm

Hi everyone. I have been out here plenty of times, mostly skiing at Mt Hood over the summers but I decided to move here to finish the winter and... looking to forward to chatting with you and getting some advice on where to go hiking. I'm going to be trying to take lots of photos once it gets warmer. :D :D :D

Our Spring ski season is out of this world. And the odd thing is that people just stop skiing in March, when the weather gets nice in Portland!

So the slopes are emptier even though the snow continues to build up usually into April. If your schedule is flexible, you might find yourself skiing fresh storm powder in May. :)

Oh, and the hiking is nice, too, though the big mountain hiking doesn't usually come into season until July (unless you don't mind postholing in snowdrifts).
Believe it or not, I barely ever ride a mountain bike.
