Internationally renowned Timberline Lodge is a thriving ski resort just outside Portland, Oregon with more than 2 million visitors a year. The Lodge is one of the best-known WPA buildings, built and furnished entirely by hand. Few who visit today realize that it was almost derelict by the 1950s, nor do they know the story of Richard L. Kohnstamm, “the man who saved Timberline.” This book celebrates the Lodge and the people who cared enough to build and then preserve “the house that Oregon built” on Mount Hood.
