Manage episode 410640158 series 2818499
New Mount Hood climbing permits are being implemented this year, in an effort to help educate the public about the risks associated with ascending the 11,245-foot peak.
On this week’s episode of Peak Northwest, we spoke with Ryan Matz, the climbing ranger program manager for Mt. Hood National Forest, who went over the new permits and offered some helpful tips and safety information for prospective climbers.
Matz also told us why he loves climbing to the top of the towering volcano, which attracts thousands of climbers each year.
Here are some highlights from this week’s show:
- How are climbing conditions looking this year?
- What’s the deal with the new permits
- What do people need to know before trying to climb Mount Hood?
- Matz shares his experiences climbing the mountain.
