Tuesday, October 23, 2012
by Liz Warren

The first snows are coming to Mt. Hood and it won't be long until the boards are heading down the hill. Here is a great ski cabin with good winter access that holds a bunch of family and friends. You'll like the big open areas in the living room and dining area. Affordable at $130,000! leased land in the Mt. Hood National Forest.

Mt. Hood Wild Spring Chinook Salmon Controvercy

Wednesday, October 17, 2012
by Liz Warren

As we know on Mt. Hood, "it's all about the fish". There's recent controversy over the wild and hatchery fish coming up stream after the removal of the Marmot Dam in 2007 (see video)

and their spawning grounds intermingling. These spawning grounds would be in our local Zig Zag River and Sandy River. The Sandy River Hatchery recently received approval from the Feds to run their program. I am by no means an expert on fish. I do my fishing at the local Trout Farm. Here is a recent article explaining the issues.

Mt. Hood High Fire Danger

Monday, September 17, 2012
by Liz Warren

Extreme temps have no burning of any kind for our area. These higher temps will remain through the week so be extra cautious and diligent to be on the look out for any fires in our area. Haze and smoke is filling our skies blowing in from out of area fires. Here is a handy map to check on any current area fires in Oregon and Washington.

Sandy High School Grand Opening This Friday!

Thursday, September 6, 2012
by Liz Warren

This Friday is the long awaited grand opening of the new Sandy High School. I took a tour of the new facility a couple of weeks ago and all I can say is this is the best thing to happen in our community in a long time. The thought and design features of the school are amazing. Public tours are offered this Friday afternoon starting at 3:30 pm. along with the opening dedication at 6:00. Governor John Kitzhaber will be at the dedication! If you can't make it to the tour, check out the new state of the art high school here!

Mt. Hood Summer Paving Delays

Friday, July 6, 2012
by Liz Warren

Ready for summer and your trip up to the mountain? Be prepared for the potential paving delays starting on July 9th. Locals and visitors may have 20 minute delays between S.E. Cherryville Drive and the Salmon River. We all have experienced the ruts and potholes after this past winter so the paving will repair the damage and make the road safer.

Westbound traffic will have not slow downs on Sundays from 9 am to 10 pm. No work will be done on holidays or starting from noon on the day before. During our Hood to Coast relay all lanes will be open.

Traffic updates may be found at www.tripcheck.com
