Hike 5:00:00 [4] 7.0 mi (42:52 / mi) +5249ft 25:04 / mi
mt adams (part one) up to lunch counter... carrying a 60lbs backpack filled with lots of rainers stuff (tent, etc) and additional water (9 liters)....
by the time we got there a huge storm started, snowed us in for about 14 hrs until we decided we needed to go down asap, 100 mile gusts, icestorm, complete whiteout... tent broke down and we had to leave it up there.... what a bummer... just happy to make it down safe...
