I have been repeatedly given the impression that the staff of Mt. Hood Meadows does not care about personal property. A number of years ago I had a snowboard stolen from the racks at Meadows. Since then I have noticed no change in security (e.g. security cameras). This being the case I usually bring a lock for my non-pass holder friends to use at the racks outside, while I use ski check, so that we can secure our equipment.

On the last day of the regular season this year, I was on my last run of the day...the lifts had just shut down. Upon reaching the bottom and heading into the lodge, I observed that the racks were in the process of being put away. When I got closer that's when I noticed the rack where my friend's snowboard was, now gone...her snowboard was on the ground, and laying next to it was my broken lock. As you can imagine, I was upset by this...this is completely unacceptable. The snowboard was just left there to be stolen...the lodge was still open, there were still drinks being served, my friend was paying her bill at the bar. I complained to the concierge and sent messages to Meadows over social media...getting no response. Thus I am leaving this review so that others are aware of the practices I have observed.
