Hiked up Stagman Ridge, turned right on the Graveyard connector to Lookingglass Lake, and then went cross country up to the Round the Mountain trail to Salt Creek to my secret camping spot (Labor Day weekend) for a couple nights.
Mt Adams is visible through the Cascade Creek burn on Grassy Hill on Stagman Ridge
Almost no snow on Adams' west side except for the remnant White Salmon Glacier
Fall color is already out - mountain ash here
Huckleberry
After making camp, we hiked north to the Bumper, and again, a snowless mountain from The Bumper
Visible and loud landslide - no snow to hold the mountain in place
SAturday afternoon had fascinating lenticular clouds
On Sunday we hiked south and east to upper Gotchen Meadow - strong winds off the summit - that ain't snow, not sure how that cloud forms
Nice TR and photos. I want to know your sekret camp spot.
WOW! I had no idea that Adams had so little snow! Spooky! Soon we won't need ice axes, REI will want to sell us talus axes
