Climb: Mt. Adams-NFNWR

 

Date of Climb: 7/5/2004

 

Trip Report:

After skiing the NFNWR two weeks ago, I wanted more. So I headed back with Dave Coleman. In the parking lot we ran into PlumbBob and his buddy, down from Alaska on a volcano tour. Bob was planning on skiing the NFNWR as well, so we joined forces, climbed the north ridge on Monday after a spectacular bivy Sunday. We got up to the West Peak at 1:30, and started skiing at 2. We took a break on a rock band after a few hundred feet, to let the corn soften up a bit more. We found the (narrow) gap, threaded between the rock bands, and found an easy exit to the Adams Glacier. Sickness.

 

Here's Dave on the Adams.

My God, I'm unproductive today.

 

Gear Notes:

Didn't take rope, crampons, or axes. Climbed NR in sneakers.

 

Approach Notes:

Trail is snow free to the meadows, patchy to last trees, where we bivied.
