Mount Hood, towering at 11,239 feet, is a majestic symbol of the Pacific Northwest’s rugged beauty. Located in the Mt. Hood National Forest of Oregon, this iconic peak has captivated adventurers since it was first climbed in 1857. Known for its distinctive conical shape, Mount Hood is a prominent feature of the Portland skyline and a beloved destination for climbers and hikers alike.
Did you know that Mount Hood is one of the most climbed mountains in the United States? It offers a variety of routes, making it accessible to climbers of different skill levels. Another fascinating fact is that despite its dormant status, with the last eruption occurring in 1866, Mount Hood is closely monitored for signs of volcanic activity due to its proximity to the city of Portland. Additionally, the mountain is renowned for its stunning alpine scenery, including glaciers and snowfields that provide excellent climbing and skiing conditions year-round.
