Santiam Pass Ski Tour

The Santiam Pass is an often-overlooked gem for backcountry skiing and riding in Oregon. With stunning mountains like Mt. Jefferson, Mt. Washington, and Three Fingered Jack, as well as numerous buttes hidden within the old-growth hemlock forests, the area offers tours and descents suitable for skiers and riders of all ability levels. While some locations, such as Tombstone Pass, Nash Crater, and Hayrick Butte, feature short approaches, the Santiam Pass truly rewards adventurous backcountry travelers who are prepared for big days and long approaches. In return, you will enjoy the peaceful solitude of being in the heart of the mountains and lap after lap of untouched snow.

Mt. Washington and Three Fingered Jack make for excellent overnight ski trips in the spring.
