Description |
This well-marked route climbs up through beech forest and then alpine scrub, to the edge of the open hill-land on Mount Adams. Much of the route is along Little Man River (aka Dry Creek) and involves boulder hopping and care, and it ends with a steep climb through forest up to the bushline on the spur. Allow five hours for the one-way trip. |
