Customer Reviews
The mountain itself is stunning. Snow covered peaks with a lake at its base - how can you go wrong? Unless, of course, you want to see the volcano, which means you will be standing on its rim..... We started at climbers bivouac and walked 2 miles or so through the woods to the tree line. From here it's up and it's rocky - for a couple of miles it was walking over and in between boulders, debris from her fits over the millennia. After the boulders it was a little over a mile up a sandy slope covered in snow. The view from the rim was amazing - the Crater blew steam, it seemed, in welcoming us to the top as we stared across at a stunning Mt Ranier (I think). This was a tough climb, harder in the snow (thank God for micro spikes) but totally worth it. Bring your water, bring your sun screen and your sunglasses, good shoes, rain gear and remember layering is king. You'll want to be off the rim 12-1. You'll be gaining over 4k in elevation in about 4.5 miles. It's doable but it's hard - it's also awesome. Highly recommend.
A very beautiful place for a hike very beautiful sighting. It was a very hard hike. Make sure to take plenty of water food and a good flashlight. If you are going early in the morning because the woods are very very dark make sure to take the right equipment if you can buy sticks and depending on the season buy Snow spikes for your shoes. The hike took us eight hours and a half. We started around 6 AM. Get prepare for a challenge the Ash makes it harder and the snow/ice also. Have fun.
Simply stunning and humbling, this Mt is something to treasure. The north side shows best views of the blast crater from 1980! Only 90 minutes from our home, this Mt. can be illusive. Plan your trip for clear weather days and call ahead to the visitors center to make sure that roads and facilities are open. Enjoy the journey. It's spectacular.
