Skibowl is back in business.

The Government Camp winter and summer resort kicked off the season,
opening the Snow Tube and Adventure Park at Skibowl East and the world’s
only Cosmic Tubing run.

“With a couple of early season snow storms and with forecasted cold
temperatures favorable for snowmaking, Mt. Hood Skibowl opened the Snow
Tube and Adventure Park on Nov. 27,” Public Relations Director Hans Wipper
announced in a press release. “The opening included the tube hill conveyor
lift, indoor play structure and the Multorpor Lodge.”

Full food service is available in the lodge with the Multorpor cafe serving
breakfast, lunch and dinner, plus the 70-meter Bar and Grill featuring
gourmet burgers and custom drink specials.

Cosmic Tubing slid into action after Thanksgiving. The world’s first and only
such feature is like day tubing on steroids with colored lights, rocking music,
laser shows, DJ nights and fireworks every third Saturday starting in
December, Wipper noted. Thrill seekers will experience an entirely new way to
have fun on the snow with 600,000 LED lights and laser light shows that make
the experience out of this world.

Day tubing hours will be 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Friday through Sunday, while
Cosmic Tubing will run from 5 p.m. to 11 p.m. Friday and Saturday.
