Friday night we went up to HooDoo Ski Resort. It's just over the Santiam pass on Highway 20 towards Eugene; about 25 miles from us. We met some friends for sledding and pot-luck in the lodge. The kids had a blast sledding on their groomed slope. They also have an "autobahn" where they have up to 16 (or 20 depending on which page of their web site you are reading) lanes set up for inner tubing. There's a rope-tow to get you back to the top, but if you're willing to walk up you get extra runs for your money. Unfortunately, it isn't open at night.
David and I are going to try to get back up there some time soon; they have "Tightwad Tuesdays" all season. A $19 lift ticket seems like a reasonable price for a couple who haven't skied in a decade. We'll test it out, then see about ski lessons for the kids. Although maybe not: the daughter of a friend of ours just broke her wrist in three places while skiing.
