“Our experience was fantastic! I had never been hiking in the snow. The guides were prepared, supportive and fun. We enjoyed all of the information about the mountain and the tribes." ~Traci, 2023 | “It was perfection! I had not thought about the many options for snow hiking and how to use the equipment. I feel much better prepared and a much greater appreciation for the mountain." ~Matt, 2023 | "The guides had a focus on safety and comfort and were especially knowledgable about the natural history of the area." ~Nick, 2022 |
Our sincere THANKS to all of the explorers that joined us this year! Join us in 2025 as we will again trek on snow trails through Douglas-fir and Hemlock forests to experience a tranquil mountain lake, waterfall and incredible views of Mount St. Helens. Travel alongside experienced mountain guides on a 5-mile round-trip loop hike to June Lake and learn about the incredible geological, ecological and human history of the Monument and the Gifford Pinchot National Forest.
