Join Women Who Hike for a once in a lifetime opportunity atop Mount St. Helens. Women Who Hike is a US based organization that through community connects and inspires those who are on their own explorative journey through hiking, self-discovery, and a connection to nature.
You’ll be joined by a group of like-minded women as we scale one of the Pacific Northwest’s most iconic peaks. You can make Mt. St. Helens your first volcano summit with a professional guide to learn the skills to climb with confidence. St. Helens is one of the lower and technically easier glaciated peaks in the Pacific Northwest but is still a strenuous climb as the starting elevation is relatively low.
This is a single-day hike. This adventure is a full day, and you must be in adequate physical condition to attempt the hike. Indigenous Peoples including the neighboring Puyallup tribe call Mount St. Helens "Louwala-Clough" or "Loowit," which means smoking mountain.
This trip requires a minimum of 5 people to run.

Grew up on the lakes and tromping around the piney, snowy woods of northern Michigan. There I enjoyed skiing, ice-skating, kayaking, fishing and other water sports. Somehow ended up in Chicago for 8 years….in my office, I dreamed of mountains and the outdoors. Moved to Portland about a decade ago to be an art librarian. Finally made my dreams a reality, librarian by week and outdoor adventurer/professional by weekend. For the past 6 years, I have worked volunteering as a recreational climbing educator, outdoor exposure for at-risk youth as an instructor and guide; as well as supporting local public/academic libraries. For the past 4 years, I’ve professionally guided hiking, backpacking, snowshoeing, mountaineering and (most recently) skiing.
Do not forget to arrange for the requisite passport, visa and travel insurance, if you are booking an international trip.
