Thanks for all the good advice!

In an emergency, will a cellphone work on Mount Adams? Is a SPOT locator a good purchase? Do they really work? I have Verizon cell service.

I truly appreciate the advice and the humor. I don't have a lot of experience. I went to a few climbing schools but it just taught me that I don't know anything.

Thank you! This is very useful!

Thank you so very much for the information. Very helpful. Yes, it is the South Spur route (183?).

Friends: I would like to come out West and attempt Mount Adams. I'm planning on a two day July climb, one night at Lunch Counter. I have climbed a few Eastern peaks (winter)and am in reasonably good shape. I have not climber higher than 6500 feet. Advice? Hard climb? How technical? How cold will it be? Do I need puffy coat and mittens? How much water should I drag along? Should I camp at Lunch Counter or in another spot?. Any words of advice would be greatly appreciated!
