I’ve done a handful of winter/spring Mount St. Helens and Mt. Adams climbs, but I’m hoping to use this year to build my skillset both physically and mentally! I’m actually climbing as a fundraiser to raise grant money toward organizations that expand outdoor opportunities for youth girls. I’m hoping to summit 5 Cascade Volcanoes in the next few months, but which ones exactly depend on what resources are available… Like, I definitely can’t afford a guided Rainier trip (especially when I’m trying to RAISE money) but if I’m able to find a mentor and work towards it on our own then I’d definitely aim for the bigger climbs. Anyway, I’m hoping this plan sets me up for success no matter which ones I end up doing! If any of you are ever in the Mt. Hood area let me know!
