Core Value Highlights

Mt. Hood Meadows & Cooper Spur Mt. Resort have 5 Core Values that all team members are encouraged to embody.

PASSION
Celebrate the natural wonder of our mountain and the recreation it provides with each other and our guests.
SUSTAINABILITY
Respectfully balance the environmental, social and financial aspects of our business in harmony with Mt. Hood.
INTEGRITY
Conduct ourselves predictably and professionally, honestly and ethically without compromise.
SERVICE
Dutifully and consistently anticipate the needs of our guests and impress them with uncompromising service.
WELLNESS
Refresh ourselves physically, emotionally and spiritually, promoting fitness, safety and responsibility to all who work and recreate here.

The Team Members below have displayed, in various ways, how to be responsible Meadows citizens.

Scott Molyneux - Transportation
Scott assisted another team member all the way in Warm Springs when their shuttle was inoperable. He took it upon himself to go above and beyond his own role as a bus driver, to fulfill a major need in the Transportation department. We appreciate you so much Scott! Your work does not go unnoticed!
Joe Towne - Programs
Joe Town informed the appropriate team after noticing a screw had come loos at the top of the stairs that was a tripping hazard for our team and guests. Thanks for keeping us safe, Joe!
Keeley Brownback - MLC
For stepping up and being the most flexible and positive while helping recover lessons, teach in every program, facilitating and leading team teaches with a passion for helping both guests and other team members.
Benjamin Valenzuela - Lift Ops
Haley says "Best MHX ramp of the season!" Thanks for your hard work, Ben!
Aaron Abeita & Mike Quinnett - Patrol
Hanging safety signs is not an easy task nor a fun one but someone has to do it. By hanging signs we save labor in the long run, as well as the costs of replacing signs and bamboo when guests hit them. Thank you for safely skiing around with a 16' extendable ladder and working with Yamo to get the HRM signs up on trees, towers & posts.
Trionna Steward - Guest Services
Trionna has worked tirelessly through the holidays, completing season pass refunds, stepping up to cover access control and excelling in her lead position.
Alexie Jenkins - MLC
Alexie is a skilled, patient, and talented instructor. She's taken some tough classes and kept them together and having fun. Thanks for all your hard work and passion!
Kurt Hoffman - Lift Operator
Kurt worked over 10 hours at the top of BCup on 1/16, He really made sure the ramp was kept up. He also was kind to everyone that came through. We appreciate having attendants like Kurt
Kenny Allen - Patrol
Kenny has a passion for learning and growth. His service to Patrol is noted every day.
Ryan Downer - Lift Ops
Ryan has been killing it at Buttercup over the last few weeks. We appreciate his hard work!
