IRON MOUNTAIN
IRON MOUNTAIN
Iron Mountain is one of the few mountains in oregon where you can downhill ski right to the snow park. Located a few miles west of the hwy 126 and hwy 20 junction on highway 20, making the access easy from both the Willamette Valley and the Bend/Redmond area. There are numerous meadows that can be linked together making for some good open skiing. Good lapping mountain with numerous other options in the vicinity visible from the summit.
