Little Beirut Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 (edited) anyone gone skiing up adams lately? Edited December 20, 2006 by gapertimmy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
letsroll Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couloir Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 Or turn it into a 2-day (or more) outting. Might actually be a lot of fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

einzelgaenger80 Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most people if any will start skiing Adams in the spring. 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. Edited January 13, 2007 by Roy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
