Timberline Lodge in Oregon’s Mount Hood Territory is the first ski lodge in the United States to be named a National Historic Landmark. Designed and built in the tradition of grand national park lodges, it sits high on the glaciated slopes of volcanic Mount Hood. The lodge is an icon of American handcraft, built with simple tools by men and women employed by the federal government during the Great Depression. Since opening day in 1937, the lodge has become one of Oregon’s most visited attractions. This Craft and Restoration tour is one of two app tours of Timberline Lodge. It tells stories behind the lodge’s hand-crafted wood, iron, stone and textiles. Images showcase many of the lodge’s intriguing spaces, from the vivid glass murals of the Blue Ox Bar to the new winter entrance that glows like a translucent snow drift. The enormous scale of the lodge and its handcrafted elements combine to create a space both epic and cozy; work to restore and enhance the lodge has been ongoing since the 1970s.
