Mount Adams Southwest Chutes
Some weird conditions today, suncuppy at the bottom with little low elevation snowpack but the upper mountain wasn’t quite prime. Still a great day spending time here.









Blue-ish ice and rime
Finding a nice spot to wait out the melt.
Unfortunately it’d just be too icy up here while the lower was a bit sloppy - hard to win today.
My favorite view of Adams...
Until now! Just finding out about this Takhlakh Lake spot
Adams Glacier
Notes
- This was probably ~14 miles and ~7600 feet of vertical gain in a little over 8 hours.
