No, but I sent a note to our resident ski historian, Lowell Skoog. He is also unaware of the resort mentioned.<br><br>Mount Hood Meadows Development Corp. has been acquiring land and development rights to create a hoped for destination resort on the NE side of Mount Hood. They have been unrelenting in the face of local opposition.

Can anyone provide links to the proposed project? I would strongly oppose this, one desecrated mountain per range (hood) is plenty. Is nothing sacred?<br><br>A quick google search reveals nothing.

Nothing about a "lost ski area" anywhere near Mt Adams on this site.<br><br> www.hyak.net/lost/

They have been unrelenting in the face of local opposition.

<br><br>I strongly oppose all MHM development, however what you just said is not correct. Thanks to intense opposition MHM is actually relenting to developing Cooper Spur. The land they acquired (via a dubious land swap) adjacent to CS they now want to trade for land in Government Camp, and they've suggested scaled-down plans for CS. See: <br> www.cooperspur.org/updates.htm

A ski lift to 11,100ft within reservation boundaries seems improbable, so I wonder how accurate the story is. I've emailed the author, Sierra Club, CSWFC to inquire if they have additional details.

I've never heard of a resort on Mt Adams, but the tribe did have a resort on its southern boarder on Satus Pass which is not far from Mt Adams.... I wonder if this is the area they talk about?? I really doubt that anyone would want to re-open the Satus Pass resort since it gets very little snowfall compared to the rest of the Cascades.<br><br>Interesting story..... Funny thing is the Yakima tribe has been fighting the White Pass expansion for 20+ years. Now it would be very intersting to see if they go and build a resort of their own on Adams... <br>

I don't think so! &gt;:( We don't need any more friggin' ski resorts. My nightmares don't need to come true. What's next? Drinking fountains located throughout popular trails providing your choice of sodas and juices. Let's keep it real and keep technology and lifts out of Adams!!
