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.

This is a seldom climbed route, between Cathedral Ridge and the Coe Glacier on the NE side of the mountain.
