I have posted a park update in the Oregon regional forum.  Correct, there is no public pipe currently and you have to walk a bit to get from the bottom of the snow lane over to the mile lift.  I would suggest that you will end up hiking once you are up to the park.
The HCSC lane is dope - if we are talking about the park next to Windell's.  Between the two, that whole section of the mountain is like a wet dream.
