MOVING THE BACKCOUNTRY FORWARD

100% Volunteer led

Our Mission

To inspire new generations of stewards to keep remote, historic spaces and natural landmarks open, safe, and inclusive.

Through our network of local partners, we preserve, protect, and promote historic spaces in the Pacific Northwest so that everyone can continue to experience the traditions of outdoor recreation.

THE A-Frame

Originally the “Warming Hut”. OUR NAMESAKE, TILLY JANE was known for her lively character and love for the north side of Mt. Hood.

We maintain this historic Forest Service cabin to ensure it’s available for public rental year-round on recreation.gov

Initially built for summer use as a guard residence by the US Forest Service.

The cabin has been used over the years for winter backcountry access, a search and rescue base, and fire protection. Today, thanks to our volunteers, anyone can rent the forest service cabin from winter to spring on recreation.gov.
