Palmer likely closed today
Due to ice on the towers
Crazy that a snow storm will be this ski season’s final dagger (for me)
I just can’t seem to wrap my head around the notion that a snow storm is what’s closing Timberline tomorrow after the season we’ve had. If you told me it would be due to lack of snow…well that would make perfect sense.
I’m gone next weekend so this weekend was going to be my last hoorah with my spring pass. Even though they may open Sunday, I’m guessing Palmer will be closed. Everyone crammed on Mile sounds less appealing. Plus, as of today you can’t even ski up to the Mile lift due to lack of snow!
Sorry to whine. No one in my household understands why I’m affected so here I am on Reddit. Despite the bad snow conditions this season, I had one of the best years ever on the mountain. Mt Hood is definitely a special place. Thanks for the good vibes, everyone. See you next year!
What are the chances Palmer is open on Sunday?
Thinking about heading up on Sunday after the snow, seems like a calm day wind wise and sunny.
Palmer will probably still be in storm recovery, yeah?
It has been melting for decades
September’56 vs September’21. Yes, White River Glacier used to be connected to Palmer. Do what you can to cut carbon use so we can continue to have winter snow.
