Mt. Hood, Oregon

Mt. Hood, Oregon is a mountain that has some of the best summer skiing in North America. I have personally been there two summers, and it has been really fun. The skiing conditions are nice because the snow is really soft and it is good for training. Government Camp is a small town very close to the mountain that is a really nice place to go and relax after skiing. Huckleberry Inn, also known as Hucks, is located in the middle of Govy(Government Camp) and has amazing milk shakes. Another fun thing to do in the area is go visit Hood River. Hood River is a large river surrounding Mt. Hood. You can rent sail boats, paddle boats and canoes. Aside form the river, the town of Hood River is really fun to walk around and is alot different from an east coast cities.
