What is the road to Hoodoo like right now?

US-20 at the top of Santiam Pass. This page puts TripCheck's cameras and its closure and crash reports for that road on one map. Oregon publishes no plow positions, and the page says so instead of guessing. The resort's own Hoodoo mountain conditions covers the mountain itself.

Plows on the road right now

Oregon publishes no plow positions. ODOT does not put its trucks on a public feed, so no page can show them. Here is what ODOT does publish:

The cameras above are the ones within 20 miles of the base, nearest first. Closures and crashes are in the next box. For the states and provinces that do publish trucks, see the snowplow map.

Closures and crashes on the road

TripCheck reports on US-20, OR-22, OR-126 within 60 miles of the base, or on any road inside the 20 miles ring: full closures, crashes, weather, hazards and lane or ramp closures. Scheduled closures are marked. Nothing listed means nothing posted, not an all-clear.

What this page can and cannot tell you

ODOT publishes its cameras and its closure and crash reports, and that is what this page shows. It does not publish where its trucks are, so no page can show that for Oregon. The closure list is TripCheck's own feed, read every five minutes and converted to the format MileCheck uses for every state. A quiet list means TripCheck has posted nothing for these roads, which is different from a road being open.

The 20 miles ring is the search area for trucks and cameras. A truck reporting on US-20, OR-22, OR-126 is kept out to 60 miles from the base, the stretch a driver is actually on; anything inside the ring is kept whatever road it is on, so a truck on a side road near the base still shows. The resort's own Hoodoo mountain conditions is the source for snowfall, lifts and the parking lots.

Questions about the road to Hoodoo

Is the road to Hoodoo open right now?

The map shows every closure and crash TripCheck is publishing on US-20, OR-22, OR-126 as a red or orange marker, and the list under it says when the DOT last updated each one. No marker means TripCheck has not posted a closure, not that the road is open. It reloads every five minutes. For the official word, open TripCheck.

Why are there no plows on this map?

ODOT does not publish its trucks' positions. Seventeen states and provinces do, and the snowplow map shows them. For Oregon, the cameras and the TripCheck reports on this page are what exists.

Are chains required on the road to Hoodoo?

Chain and traction requirements are set by ODOT per road and per storm, and they show up in the TripCheck feed as restrictions, which this page lists when they are on US-20, OR-22, OR-126. Oregon's chain law explains the levels and who they apply to. Always follow the posted signs.

How often does this page update?

Plow positions every minute, closures and crashes every five minutes, the camera list every ten. MileCheck's server reads the ODOT and TripCheck feeds and converts them to one format. Each truck and each alert carries its own time stamp from the DOT, shown next to it.
