Come with us on our climb up to Lunch Counter on Mount Adams! We took the South Climb Winter Route on June 21-22, 2022.
At an elevation of 12,276′, Mount Adams is the second highest peak in Washington, and it’s the largest volcano by bulk in the state.
This was our second time NOT summitting Mount Adams! Total amateur hour over here. 😂
Despite the lack of triumphant mountaintop summit pics, it was one of our best trips ever!
Find out the three reasons why we didn’t make the summit this time, and what we’ll do differently next time.
Not to blame it on the dog, but… 🤔
Third time’s a charm?
This one’s super fun. Enjoy!
