Climb for a Cause is a fundraising program at WNPF that gives climbers a once in a lifetime opportunity to climb Washington's iconic mountains while giving back to the parks.

Story

WNPF's BOD and Friends are joining forces to raise funds for Washington's national parks. The culmination of our fundraising efforts will be a thrilling 4-day summit attempt of Forbidden Peak in the summer of 2024. The proceeds raised from this initiative will contribute to search and rescue operations in Mount Rainier, North Cascades, and Olympic National Parks.

In partnership with world-class International Mountain Guides, WNPF is orchestrating a unique fundraising climb of Forbidden Peak, providing a rare opportunity for park enthusiasts to strive for the summit of this iconic peak in the Cascades.

Be a part of turning this incredible dream into reality by supporting my climb with a donation! Your contribution will not only help me achieve something extraordinary but also create lasting memories while aiding the preservation of Washington's spectacular national parks.
