| Comments: |
Always enjoyable to go up Adams by Lowe's path because it is less traveled then Valley Way or Airline and the section above tree line for 1.5 miles is great when the weather is as nice as it was. The section below the Log Cabin shelter is steep and wet so care must be taken, especially if you are coming down. Spur trail is very enjoyable below the RMC cabin (Crag camp) and not so difficult to navigate when descending. We met several hikers at the summit and chatted with a few. This was a special hike for me as I was going to scatter the ashes of my dog Dali just south of the summit. I had lots of memories hiking with him to this summit, summer and winter. |
