La Nina Coming to Mt. Hood!

by Liz Warren

Now that the cooler weather of fall is upon us, the first frost is on it's way,  and the leaves are coming down like crazy in my yard, it's obvious winter will soon be on it's way.  Rumor has it we are in another La Nina year! What does that mean for locals in Government  Camp, Welches, Brightwood and Rhododendron? Get the firewood in and the soup on the stove. 

Here is a great run down of what La Nina means to locals and Portland folk who visit the mountain.

by Liz Warren

September produced a bumper crop of sales. Although four of these properties were foreclosures, the rest were scattered throughout the area. Several were USDA loans for full time resident homes. This is a government loan like FHA except there are income restrictions and area restrictions. Our entire area qualifies for this program. Four sales were cash purchases.

Collins Lake Condo Sales on Mt. Hood

by Liz Warren

One of the more popular Condo projects in Government Camp are the Collins Lake condo units near the heart of downtown Government Camp. Many owners love the ease of driving up to the mountain on a snowy day and pulling in to their garage, walking upstairs, and relaxing in front of the fireplace for a low maintenance, easy winter getaway at the base of Mt. Hood.

Two Collins Lake condo units have sold over the past month and a half. One was a foreclosure and the second was bank financed. Here are the details. Sales prices $168,000 for the foreclosure and $208,500 for the non-distressed sale.

Wild and scenic Boulder Creek, which feeds into the Salmon River, has new recreational and habitat protection through the recent purchase of 245 acres of land from Clackamas County. The land has been conveyed to the BLM Bureau of Land Management for protection. 

The removal of the Marmot Dam has brought many native fish back in to the local area. The purchase will help protect one of the prime fish producing streams in the Sandy basin area.
