Mt. Hood (Wy'east), South Side

Activity Notes

We will keep a steady, moderate pace and arrive at the summit early Monday morning (~6 hours to summit). Please be prepared to reach Silcox hut within an hour, with the weight of your pack and possibly a rope.  Members should feel comfortable climbing moderately steep terrain that may be hard pack and/or icy in spots.  As of January 1, 2024, all climbers above 9,500' in the Mt. Hood National Forest are required to carry a permit. As a Mazama member, if you are accepted onto this climb, your permit will be included with your registration.  You will not need to arrange your own climbing permit.
