Getting Started

New to the Spokane Mountaineers website? This page walks you through your first visit: activating your account, signing in, and setting up your profile so you can keep up with the activities you care about.

Activate your account

Your account is created when you join or renew through Donorbox. After that, you'll get an activation email with a link to set your password and finish your login. Follow the link, choose a password, and you're in.

If you joined but never got an activation email, check your spam folder first, then email membership@spokanemountaineers.org and we'll resend it.

Sign in

Your username is your email address. If your membership email is a Google or Microsoft address, you can sign in with one click instead of a password. See Logging In for the details and for what to do if you're locked out.

Set up your profile and settings

The first thing to do after you sign in is review your profile and settings. Open the menu under the down arrow to the right of your name in the upper-right corner of the site. It contains:

  • Home
  • My Profile
  • My Settings
  • My Messages
  • My Account
  • Contact Support
  • Logout

Start with My Settings to choose what other members can see — new accounts hide your email and phone by default — and to turn on the email notifications that keep you in the loop. Then fill out My Profile with your activity interests. The full walkthrough is on Profile, Settings & Privacy.

Join the activities you care about

Take a few minutes to find the Activity Groups you want to follow and join them. Each group has its own events, posts, and files, and you choose how often you hear from it. See Events & Activity Groups.
