Thoughts on Mt Hood end May early June?

[ahparker]

Wondering what people's thoughts are for Hood toward the end of May early June given the mild winter this year. It's my first year in Portland, I went up a couple times this winter but not sure how conditions will be this Summer. Trying to advise family whether or not it's worth flying out for around that time frame. Thanks in advance for any and all input.

Thanks for the link, guess it's more confirmation of what I was leaning toward.

i think i'd personally err towards not. unless you're here short term and you can't give it a go another year... hope better for next spring. that said if family want to visit and enjoy the NW.. topping out on hood isn't the be-all-end-all. Adams will be melted more but an easy romp you don't have to concern much with the hazards/pitfalls of hood.
