| | Portland Mountain Rescue About PMR What Is PMR? |
| | Our existence is a direct response to a way of life for untold thousands of people living in the Pacific Northwest who cherish their right to actively experience the freedom of the hills. | | | Team members do not receive compensation for their work and are not reimbursed for their expenses whatsoever. | | | Mount Hood, for instance, is one of the most climbed mountains in the world, but its many glaciers, steep terrain and unpredictable conditions can quickly overwhelm an inexperienced hiker or even an experienced climber who is unfamiliar with the mountain. |
