mountaineering & car camp- south sister, or - June 2, 2023

We plan to do a day climb to South Sister (10,358 ft), the third tallest mountain in Oregon. Trip schedule: fly out/road trip on June 2 Friday, climb on June 3 Saturday, fly back/road trip on June 4 Sunday. This is non-technical mountaineering. But participants must: 1) have excellent stamina for 12.4 miles RT with 5000 ft gain on snow in one day; 2) be willing to buy/rent/lend required individual gear if necessary; and 3) have at least basic mountaineering skills (e.g. how to use crampons, ice axe etc). Some participants will come from the Mt Hood climb. But there are slots available for those who want to do South Sister only. I reserved a campsite - $48 for two nights for the group. The cost for each participant will depend on the number of participants. For more details, please contact the organizer (please include your current fitness level and mountaineering experience). Limit 6. WMC members only.
