Is there a way to hide & unhide a Trello list?
Or is there another kind of work around?

There's a similar question on stackexchange here, where Rich Armstrong of Trello mentions a proposed collapsible lists Trello feature you can vote on:
Currently, the only way to "hide" a list is to archive it.
You can view your archived cards and lists by clicking the "View Archived Items" button on the right side of the board.
I needed this myself, so I wrote https://github.com/shesek/trello-hide-lists. Check it out.
For anyone that still has this problem there is a simple solution - stylish. It's available for Chrome and Firefox and allows you to write custom styles for websites.
There are plenty ready-to-use ones like "Trello card id's" etc..
By adding the following to your style you can hide nth list from the view
.js-list.list-wrapper:nth-child(XXX){
display:none;
}
where XXX is your list number (from left to right)
You can add this for every list you want to hide. Or make it match more than one element.

You can slide it all the way to the right so that if you have more than the ~5 lists that fit in the screen it will not be visible - but still active and accessible.
Another option: if you don't have a lot of cards you could add a label "Active" to the cards in the other lists and filter for that label.
