Activity Notes
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. Please review our refund policy carefully before registering for any activity.
This is a climb for intermediate and experienced climbers, who are comfortable down climbing steep now.
Climb date is tentative and will depend upon an appropriate weather window and conditions. We'll shoot for weekends or later week days i.e. Thursday or Friday.
A second tool will be required and you should be proficient with crampon adjustments/usage. <br>

We'll move at a reasonable pace and if a climber can't keep up with the group's pace, I'll ask them to fall back at the top of Palmer snowfield so as to not compromise team's turn around time and safety.
