| If you haven't been to Central Oregon, located on the eastern side of the Cascade Mountain range, then you have been missing out on a whole lot of fun, outdoor recreation opportunities and tons of sunshine! Nearly 300 days of sunshine per year - The Central Oregon climate is a dry high desert atmosphere with little precipitation ranging in elevations from 1,500 feet at Warm Springs to 4,200 at Sunriver. Most of our precipitation arrives during the winter months and falls as snow rather than rain like the western half of Oregon. Because of the dramatic climb in elevation, Central Oregon's weather will vary depending on the town you may be in. Sunriver will have snow pack nearly all winter long, whereas Redmond stays mostly dry. Bend lies somewhere in between with a snow fall usually resulting in melting by mid-afternoon. Average temperatures during the summer reach over 80 degrees while winter can get chilly with an average maximum temperature of 41 degrees. Unlike many gray areas in the Northwest, Central Oregon has more sunny days than Houston, Texas, and only 14% less than Phoenix, Arizona. During the winter months, chilly temperatures and a dry climate result in some of the best snow the Northwest has to offer- Mt. Bachelor is one of the biggest and best ski and snowboard resorts on the west coast offering dry powder and a very long season--from mid-November until the end of May. Mt. Bachelor sits at 6,300 feet and tops out at over 9,000 feet with an average snow base of 370 inches. Find Out More About Central Oregon Here |
