Mt. Ellinor, SE Chute

Activity Notes

Note: the team for this climb has been selected.  Apply if you would like to be added to the waitlist in case of cancelations.  Thanks!

Please note this climb is on a Friday!<br> We will depart the Lower Mt. Ellinor Trailhead at 8 AM.  We will hike up the Lower Trail until it intersects with the Upper Trail.  Depending upon snow and trail conditions we will take the winter route up the SE chute or continue on the summer route trail.  Plan on needing and being proficient with using crampons and ice axe for both options.

Climb team members can either join us at a campsite at Big Creek campground the night before the climb or drive up early on the morning of the climb.

Additional Costs: depending on how many people and cars we have at the campsite, camping will cost an additional $TBD per person.  Our ability to carpool to share costs may be limited due to COVID restrictions.  Please keep these costs in mind as they are not covered by the climb application fee.

What to Expect After Applying: please apply by May 6th for initial consideration.  After May 6th, I will select the climb team and alternates and notify everyone via email of their status by May 15th.  My goal in selecting a climb team is to create a well balanced group with a diverse range of skills, backgrounds, and experiences.

Financial Aid:  please see this page for information about the Mazamas' financial aid program.
