Resorts Hoodoo-Ski-Area
Area Profile
Hoodoo has been a favorite of families from the Willamette Valley and Central Oregon for many years. You'll find it atop Santiam Pass and you can get there from either side of the Cascade Range. It has 30 runs on 800 acres, and plenty of it is left ungroomed for the snowboarders, especially on the backside. The terrain park is right in front of the lodge. Hoodoo is open daily except for most Wednesdays and has night skiing on the weekends. It's motto is "Steep, deep and cheap." The mountain is closed on non-holiday Wednesdays.
