I should have explained better. We were hoping to find a younger guide.... doesn't have to be world class that will assist us on the climb. In return, we will pay him. From what I deciphered on the guide sites, it looked like the cost would be 600 or so per climber. Sorry but that is not in the budget. We are fairly flexible and open to different ideas.

Greetings, New member here.... Searched the threads up and down and didn't find what I was looking for sooooooooo... I'll have 4-8 friends (most likely 4) 2 of us are experienced. We'd like to climb Mt Hood in May. Our friends will be trained in the basics by the time they get to Mt Hood. We'd like support, a guide who could provide ropes, harnesses (we'll rent them), etc... Any takers? We could use a service but the price is high in the current economy and I know many guides I have climbed with in the past have moonlighted. Has anyone else tried tried/done this?
