6.05 miles of hiking • 1250' elevation gain •

Crystal clear day, perfect temperature and a great trailfriend all added to the delight of my first trip to Mt Adams. Even though the blooms are mostly done it was still amazingly beautiful. The park host at Mirror lake where we bought our permit let us know that mountain goats have been seen not to much above the Hellroaring viewpoint.No goats but it was still beautiful. The gentians are at their peak. Not much else is blooming except near water. Crooked creek waterfall was much bigger than I expected.One of the high points of my hiking year for sure.
