I grew up kayaking and exploring in the Adirondack region of Northern New York and have since traveled through much of the U.S. and Canada in search of rivers. With a background in creative non-fiction writing, I've founded an online magazine, written screenplays for adventure sports films, and produced short films.

Nice work getting up there in the winter Nick! I made a visit last August and was enamored with the hotel ruins.

Mount St. Helens Hike: Monitor Ridge Route

10.21.13

Awesome climb within relatively easy reach of Portland. Great to combine with others such as Ape Cave and Lava Canyon. At this point, crampons and ice axes aren't necessary, but would make the brief snow crossings easier.
