Book Description
Timberline Lodge: The History, Art, and Craft of an American Icon is the story of the construction and furnishing of Oregon’s beloved ski resort on Mount Hood. Timberline was hand built and furnished by over 400 workers and 100 artists through the Works Progress Administration. Dedicated in 1937 by President Franklin Roosevelt and home of the third chairlift in the nation, the lodge has welcomed skiers and snowboarders for over 85 years. This history was popular when it was originally published by Timber Press in 2009. It is again available in a slightly larger paperback format published by Cascadian Publishing Company. The history has been brought up to date and the comprehensive inventory of original furnishings and artwork has been expanded and updated, illustrating why now more than ever, the lodge is a revered landmark.
