AMBOY — Climbing permits for Mount St. Helens go on sale at 9 a.m. Monday online through the Mount St. Helens Institute website.

The permits cost $22 and are required above 4,800 feet in elevation on Mount St. Helens.

Climbing registers are at Marble Mountain Sno-Park and Climbers Bivouac trailhead. Climbers are required to sign the register at the trailhead when they begin their climb.

Plastic permit holders are available at the register stations so climbers may display each permit while on the mountain.

Parking permits will no longer be provided with climbing permits. A national forest day pass for parking will cost $5 and will be available at a self-service station at Climbers Bivouac, at Mount St. Helens National Volcanic Monument facilities or online a www.discovernw.org/store_recreation-passes_1PASS.
