September Work Party.
Come on out and support the MTTA, and enjoy the Rainier Mountain
Fest,. We will meet at the Ashford Fire Hall at 10 am, which will
give you enough time to hit the great Monsoon Gear Sale first. Free dinner is
provided at the Mountain Fest at 6 pm for all the volunteers. We will be
concentrating on trail brushing this month, so please come out and bring your
friends to help get this important job done! Bring tools if you have them, and
gloves! See you there!
North America's largest No Fee Hut-to-Hut
Trail System. Approximately 50
miles of trails, 20 miles groomed, three huts, and a yurt.
Operated and managed by a Non-Profit
Association in cooperation with our host landowners.
The trail system provides two huts and one yurt as
overnight accommodations. Other than a nominal
permit processing fee, there is no charge, as long as
you show up for your reservation and leave the huts
in good condition. The huts and yurt are
available for day trekers to use as a rest place and
lunch facility.
All facilities have propane heating stoves, sleeping pads,
LED lights,
a complete kitchen, tables, chairs, etc.
All you need to bring is a sleeping bag, food, and
emergency gear in case you need it on the way
to or from the facility.
Reservations are on a first come, first served basis.
They can be made in person at
Whittaker Mountaineering in
Ashford, or delivered to the MTTA office by mail or in person on
winter season weekends.
