I haven't been up that way in a while, but I've spent plenty of time on the N side of Adams in the past. In snow years better than this one I've been able to drive all the way to Killen Creek TH with no problems in May and/or June. My guess is that this year you could go up without any trouble at all by the end of this month.

 

The thing you really need to be asking yourself is, "Do I really want to hike up this pile of choss when there are so many other great lines on this side of the hill?" I've never been "up" the NR; I only use it for descents. It's a dirt-slog - especially this year.

 

Think: NF Adams Glacier, Adams Glacier Icefall, Stormy Monday Couloir, Lava Glacier, Lyman Glaciers (North or South), or all the cool stuff on the NW aspect.
