Mix it Up with the Mahre Bros this Summer at Mt Hood

We created a special new camp this summer where we will stay altogether right on the mountain at the exclusive Silcox Lodge – it’s the only ski in ski out camp on Mt Hood and is sure to be filled with great fun and memories.

Austria Dream Trip Photos & Stories

In Kitzbuhel and Austria we overcame the challenges, cashed in favors, got tickets to the races, threw down some Williams and even skied some powder. Daron Rahlves led a few of our brave souls down a dark and twisty trail and showed them some of our hidden secrets in Kitzbuhel. We even made it over to Zurs and learned why it was always Warren Miller’s favorite destination.
