Over the Edge: Uncontrolled Slide Into an Active Volcanic Fumarole

Portland Mountain Rescue, a 2023 SAR Award winner, was selected for their heroic efforts to rescue a snowboarder who had fallen 30 feet into an active volcanic fumarole on Mt. Hood. Working through the night, PMR and Hood River Crag Rats combined forces to rescue him from prolonged exposure to potentially lethal toxic gasses.
Join us in thanking volunteer SAR for the critical role they play in keeping us safe in the backcountry!
