Willamette Pass Ski Area

Run where Oregon’s wilderness meets iconic Pacific Crest Trail views. Smooth singletrack, forested XC ski trails, and rugged climbs push your endurance while rewarding every step. From Diamond Peak towering above Odell Lake to the turquoise waters of Rosary Lakes, the South Cascades bring scenery so stunning it almost distracts from the burn in your quads. By night, relax under a blanket of stars in the crisp mountain air.

Beyond the relay

Crater Lake National Park
Just an hour away, Oregon’s only national park is a must-see. Stand on the rim of a 7,000-year-old volcanic caldera and take in the unreal blue of one of the deepest and clearest lakes in the world.
The Oregon Coast
Head west for rugged cliffs, sea stacks, and endless beaches. From Florence to Yachats, the coastline is packed with scenic lookouts, tide pools, and seafood shacks worth the detour.
Bend
Adventure and craft culture collide in Bend. Explore world-class mountain biking trails, float the Deschutes River, or refuel downtown with a cold pint and views of the Cascades.
