The Mazamas is a truly unique community, where deep Pacific Northwest roots meet internationally esteemed mountaineering and education standards. We're glad you're here!
The climb team for this climb has been selected and currently has a waitlist of 8.
This climb is oriented toward novice climbers (and a few experienced climbers) who have not summitted Mt. Hood. We will leave Portland at 10pm on Tuesday, May 14 and summit on May 15.
My climbing style is to move consistently at a comfortable pace, stopping very infrequently. Everyone on the team will have an opportunity to kick steps between the top of the Palmer Snowfield and the Hogsback. At that point, we will make a decision about who and how we go to the summit.
