Activity Notes

Edit: 5/2 - The weather is not good this weekend either. Pushing it out.

 

I do not accept climbers till the week of the climb. I will only accept folks who can confirm by email reply to me that they can make it. Please check this page to see updates. If the climb will go, I will send an email around 5-7 days out.

 

Leave portland on day 1 early AM, collect permits (25$ cash/check per person)

Day 1: hike in, setup camp, most probably on snow

Day 2:: Summit

Day 3: Break camp, hike out, drive back to portland

I will be monitoring the weather, and the climb may get pushed out. Participants must have summitted glaciated mountains at or above 12k feet (Mt Adams or higher). Applicants must also be comfortable with steep snow and ice, rope travel with a running belay and use of ice axe and crampons. Applicants should also have experience in snow camping.

 

This plan may change to car-2-car, or camp much lower at horse camp and then approach the summit from there, due to the winds condition from recent reports. Please make sure you are ok with these possibilities before applying
