Great Shot

Incredible shot Craig! Makes me want to pack my crampons and ice axe and head for Oregon.

Thanks Cfree! (c/o JHL)

It was an absolutely perfect day on Mount Hood. If I had been prepared, It would have been the ideal day for a summit bid. The Illumination Saddle / Rock is a great afternoon hike and an Ideal place to watch the sunset.

Re: Great Shot

Indeed. Hood is still on my to do list. Would it be a difficult solo? Awesome photo.

Re: Great Shot

Hood, by the standard route, in the summer, is an easy solo. There is a boot path all the way up. Just follow the trail.
