Hi all Was wondering if anybody has a relatively recent condition report for Mt Hood? Weather's looking really good this week and am hoping to head up on Friday. Eyeing Leuthold's, Cooper Spur, DKH or just the standard route if conditions suck. Any info would be greatly appreciated! Thank you Adrien
I personally haven't been up, but some friends did DKH V4 last week which was very well in, they chose to solo. They just did V1 on Tuesday and only found enough ice for 2 or 3 stubbies. Wyeast looked in but totally unconsolidated waist deep snow traversing to the summit from trip reports Wednesday 2/19, the party that posted turned back before the summit due to the snow. Gates both have ~10 foot ice steps.
PMR's Facebook page has pretty frequent reports from some dedicated team members, I'd check there first for hood conditions generally
