The premier Oregon resort becomes Indy’s largest by skier volume

The Indy Pass is proud to announce that Mt. Hood Meadows, Oregon is joining its coalition of independent resorts for the 22/23 season. Mt. Hood Meadows is one of the largest independently owned and operated resorts in the US and features 2,150 acres, 11 lifts, 85 named runs, and 430″ of annual snowfall. It welcomes more skier visits than any other Indy resort partner.

“We are very excited to welcome our home mountain, Mt. Hood Meadows, to the Indy family of resorts. We know first-hand that Meadows is one of the finest resorts in North America, and their presence on the pass will elevate and support all Indy resorts.”

– Indy Pass president Doug Fish

Meadows Chairman and CEO Matthew Drake says alignment with the Indy Pass continues the company’s efforts to expand access to quality mountain recreation experiences, stating, “It is our culture to innovate, implement new initiatives, experiment, learn and then refine. Our first year with the Indy Pass is another exciting experiment.”

Mt. Hood Meadows immediately becomes the crown jewel in Indy’s Western region. It gives the Indy Pass a Mt. Hood anchor to compliment White Pass, Washington, and Hoodoo, Oregon, each about 2.5 hours from Portland. Meadows’ reliable Cascade snowpack comes from the constant barrage of winter storms that pound the Oregon coast before slamming into 11,225′ Mt. Hood. Its extensive terrain includes 1,700 additional vertical feet of hike-to-snow fields and gate-accessed side country, affording Meadows premier status by any measure.
