For many years, Olympia Mountaineers Ray Philen and Donnie Miller maintained our online "home" at www.olympiamountaineers.org. In 2014, The Mountaineers launched a new website, designed to make it easier for people to discover and get involved with our community. After nearly five years, we've managed to move all of our old content on to the new platform. Thank you to everyone who helped!

Your new home for the Olympia Mountaineers  is mountaineers.org/Olympia. Go ahead and bookmark it on your browser now to stay up to date on all of our wonderful courses, activities, and events. And, below, find quick links to all of our fantastic opportunities and resources.

That website hosted a PDF of a crevasse rescue set up that was very helpful - where can I find this now?
