  • Meet the Crag Rats: Oregon mountain rescue team is still going strong after 100 years

    Meet the Crag Rats: Oregon mountain rescue team is still going strong after 100 years
    Feb 19 2026
    If you get injured on Mount Hood or lost in the Columbia River Gorge, odds are good that a Crag Rat will find you. The Crag Rats are one of the nation’s oldest mountain rescue organizations, first formed in 1926. On this week’s episode of the Peak Northwest podcast, we speak with Christopher Van Tilburg, a mountain rescue doctor with the Crag Rats and author of a new book about the organization, “Crisis on Mount Hood: Stories from 100 Years of Mountain Rescue.” Here are some highlights from this week’s show: How the Crag Rats perform their rescues. What it takes to be on the mountain rescue team. The storied 100-year history behind the group. How did they get the name Crag Rats anyway? Learn more about your ad choices.

    Feb 12 2026
    What do we love about Oregon? A whole lot, as it turns out. On this week’s episode of the Peak Northwest podcast, we honor Oregon’s birthday and Valentine’s Day with a love letter to our favorite state. It’s not just the resplendent nature — from quiet forests to majestic mountains to magical desert rivers — we love just about every part of this state, right down to the fried fish. Here are some highlights from this week’s show: It’s hard to pick, but these are our favorite Oregon landscapes. Why small towns have some of the best charm. Is Portland the perfect city? Oregon’s world-class food scene is spoiling us. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    How Oregon State Park changes could impact your 2026 travel plans
    Feb 5 2026
    Your Oregon state park adventures might look a little different this year. With new parking and camping fees coming to Oregon state parks, as well as new rules about booking and canceling your campground reservation, there is a lot to navigate when making your travel plans for 2026. On this week’s episode of Peak Northwest, we follow up last week’s conversation with the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department about the new changes, with tips for navigating your state park adventures for the year ahead. Here are some highlights from this week’s show: What you need to know about the new camping rules. Why state park cabins and yurts are still a great deal. Get ready to pay at coastal parks. Consider traveling to some of these lesser-visited state parks to avoid new fees. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
