Trip: Mt. Adams - Mazama Glacier

 

Date: 7/17/2010

 

Trip Report:

Masood, Christophe, Eric and I climbed the Mazama Glacier route on Adams this past weekend. The weather was great and the conga line up the south spur was in full motion...check out the glissade path from the false summit (a couple of feet deep) visible from well below!

We had Sunshine camp all to ourselves after Sunday and the route was in fine condition, just a few small crevasses showing that are easily avoidable.

We left camp at 3:00 AM Monday and were standing on top by 7:30...back in camp by 10:40.

 

Gear Notes:

Standard Alpine gear...crampons, ice axe, rope, etc...

 

Approach Notes:

The approach is mostly on dirt up to 6,000 FT or so...easy route finding...not so easy finding a parking spot at the trailhead on a weekend right now!
