Architect Blane Skowhede, a part-time resident of Government Camp, has an extensive history living and recreating on Mt. Hood. His family built their cabin above Rhododendron in 1916 and is still enjoyed by he and his family today. Combining his degree in architecture and his history on the Mountain makes his knowledge of Cascadian Design hard to match. Below is a partial listing of projects.
