The delayed start to the ski season in the Cascades is causing economic ripples across the region, as Hoodoo Ski Resort faces challenges due to a lack of snow.

Matthew McFarland, general manager at Hoodoo, explained that the resort has experienced similar situations in the past. "We had a year where we open for 14 days. Nothing you can do really. Sadly people were laid off they just didn't have jobs. We have a short season," McFarland said.

The absence of snow has led to a postponed opening, resulting in less business for local establishments, canceled events, and a shortened ski season.
