Embark on an adventure with map and compass to find your way through forested or urban environments. Mt Hood Orienteering shows you how to get started and provides challenging courses for all skill levels from beginner to advanced.
UPCOMING EVENTS
Aug 12-16: Radio Orienteering Championships
MTHD will host the 25th USA and 13th IARU Championships that will take place at the White River West, Skyline, and Billy Bob Sno-Parks in the Mt Hood National Forest. Radio orienteering combines map and compass navigation with radio direction finding. The competitors use a radio receiver and a directional antenna to locate hidden radio transmitters, then navigate to them as fast as they can. Registration is now open!
Sep 13, 2026: 2026 White River East
The White River East Sno-Park event center will be located next to Highway 35 at the southern base of Mt Hood. The event courses are in an area carved out by massive snow melts each year, so much of the environment is composed of drainage ditches surrounded by scattered trees. We will have seven point-to-point medium distance courses (something for all skill levels) to choose from. If you camp overnight, you can spend time the day before exploring the White River West Sno-Park, where we recently hosted the final event of the PNWOF.
Oct 4: Stub Stewart Goat
The Goat is back! With an expanded map and a different format than last year. More details are coming soon!
