Thanks guys. I've mostly done early season climbs and have fairly good snow skills with ice axe and crampons. Would you recommend roping up?

Hi Everybody, I'm fairly new mountaineering, having climbed a few non-technical peaks including Shasta, Adams a few times, and some winter climbs of some of the I-90 corridor peaks. I am looking for a way to step into the technical arena and am looking on advice for where to start? I am planning a trip to hood next week. Advice? Thanks so much, Ben
