  1. To everyone that is still interested in this issue I have a good news update. As of this afternoon I believe I can say it is dead. The bill went to a Senate committee and the chair of that committee has come out in opposition and said she does not plan on giving the bill a hearing. It has been a real education in politices in our fight against this ill-conceived legislation. I am pleased that in the end reason and good sense seems to have won out. Lets keep up the fight to keep Mt Hood free and fun and dangerous. Now go out there and learn how to use your compass.
  2. John, Just thought everyone should know that it looks like we have put a stop to the Mt Hood beacon bill. Many concerned climbers and the mountain rescue community as a whole have been working hard to put a stop to this ill-conceived legislation. I just got word this afternoon that it is very unlikely to make it out of the Senate committee. Self reliance and well practiced skills are the most important tools to take on a climb. Having the state make your check list is the antithesis of the sport of climbing.
