Description

Mount Hood (3,429 m) is a stratovolcano that belongs to the Cascade Range, in the U S state of Oregon. The Reid Glacier Headwall route is located on the west side of the mountain and is one of its longest and most advanced climbing routes to the Mt Hood summit.

During this one day climb, participants cross the Reid Glacier and then face a steep and difficult ascent. Once at the top of the headwall, the final climb before the summit presents some important obstacles, including ice towers, and should not be underestimated. The descent is done through one of the southside routes.

Only advanced climbers with extensive mountaineering experience should attempt to climb Mt. Hood via Reid Glacier Headwall.

Will was great wise and fun to spend the day with.

Guide cancelled within 48 hrs and I was unable to find someone else and so far I’ve not been refunded. Put a small dent in my otherwise great trip to Revelstoke.

Guide was very experienced and very patient with us. We learned alot and he tried to fit in all the knowledge he could in one day, super awesome. A little tough going back and forth to get the trip set up hard to tell if the site is sketchy until you see reviews but all worked out. Ended up with an awesome day with an awesome guide. Overall pretty satisfied and thankful!

Nate was very knowledgeable and got me to the top of mountain. He’s not as engaging as most of the guides I’ve had over the years. I’ve learned a lot about most of my climbs as guides talk about the mountain and the area maybe even plant and animals and I enjoy getting to know them better. We did talk a bit more on the way out of the trailhead. All in all a good experience. But not sure your company told him I had a knee replacement and would be slow.
