Little Beirut Mt Adams is basically closed in the winter due to the length of the apporach just to the trail heads. Most people if any will start skiing Adams in the spring.

Unless you have access to a snowmobile.

Or turn it into a 2-day (or more) outting. Might actually be a lot of fun.

Excited to hear your trip report. I love Adams, and would love to do a little 3 or 4 day expedition up there in winter.

Whats up with this attitude? It can be quite a challenge in winter. Not so technical, but very hard ice above the lunch counter.

It can give one the feel of a mini expidition,better than going to star bucks and parking in a lot. And patting yourself on the back for a few hour climb.

A winter accent of Adams by the dog route takes planning weather observation and some luck.

It took me three times over 15 years to pull it off .

Give some respect until you try it in jan or feb.

Personally I had a easier time on south side of Rainier in winter.

 

JMHO.
