Each year the Mazamas repair and maintain our namesake trail on Mt. Hood, opening it up for the hiking season.

Ever since the Dollar Lake fire, we have encountered more and more trees down so a good turnout is really helpful. Tasks will include cutting logs, trimming brush, and clearing drain dips.

No experience necessary, distance and elevation listed are maximum.

Activity Notes

Come help maintain our namesake trail on Mt Hood by repairing tread, brushing, clearing drains and cutting logs, There will be activities to suit all levels, training and tools provided. Be sure to have sturdy boots, long pants, long sleeves, eye protection and gloves (USFS requirements), we’ll have hardhats available. Between the storm damage from last September and the usual winter issues, there were 112 trees across the trail in mid-June. That number is down to 80 now due to preliminary cutting activity but we can’t fully open this trail without your help! 

Note: Dry camping available at trailhead for those interested in multiple days.
