In many parts of the world "snow" is a four-letter word...but in Central Oregon it's a synonym for "fun"! Once it arrives in the nearby mountains in November, you can ski it, board it, telemark it, tube it, skate it, throw it, sled dog it, skijor it, even build a cozy shelter out of it--all the way through May.
The focal point for many of these activities is a solitary mountain called Bachelor. Mt. Bachelor Ski and Summer Resort has one of the longest winter seasons for downhill skiing and snowboarding in North America, as well as the #1 lift system voted by readers of Ski Magazine on multiple occasions. Groomed cross-country trails, sled-dog rides, half-pipe and a snowboard park full of rails and other challenges are also a part of Mt. Bachelor's famous ski resort.
