Ski the Historic Glade Trail in Government Camp: 10 Year Anniversary March 3rd!
March 3rd is the 10th Anniversary of the Ski the Glade Trail fundraiser. If you've skied at Timberline you've likely heard of the Glade Trail which leaves the designated ski area of Timberline and meanders several miles down to the heart of Government Camp emptying onto the road known as Blossom Trail. In the old days, pre-plowing the streets, skiers could ski all the way down to the Government Camp Loop road and quench their thirst at local taverns and restaurants.
It's a full day event. Find details here.
Government Camp Rest Stop Staying Open
The only rest stop between Madras and Sandy almost was shut down to to a lack of funding by ODOT. The Government Camp rest stop is old and in need of updating and repairs. It was slated to shut down but local area businesses and leaders worked with politicians to get it funded at least through March 31, 2012. Other options are currently in the works. Read the details in the Sandy Post article.
