Yes, Timberline has snow, especially the famous Timberline Lodge ski area on Mount Hood, Oregon, which is known for having the longest ski season in North America and typically has snow year-round. Timberline Lodge on Mount Hood is located at high elevation from 4,000 to 8,540 feet on Palmer Glacier, which retains snow even in summer, allowing skiing and snowboarding 12 months a year, the only resort in North America to offer that. In winter, Timberline receives massive snowfall, averaging 400 to 600 inches of snow per season, with deepest snowpack in late winter and spring, often with 10 to 20 feet base. Even in summer, Palmer Glacier has snow for summer camps and public skiing. Other Timberline resorts like Timberline Mountain Resort in Davis, West Virginia also have snow seasonally, typically from late November to March, with average snowfall of 150 to 200 inches, supplemented by snowmaking. Timberline as a geographic term meaning tree line in mountains also relates to snow, as timberline is elevation above which trees cannot grow due to cold and snow. So yes, Timberline has abundant snow, with Mount Hood Timberline having most reliable snow year-round due to glacier and high elevation, while East Coast Timberline resorts have seasonal snow December to March. If you visit in summer, you will still see snow on upper mountain at Mount Hood Timberline.
