Mt. Adams, south side climbing route along right horizon

 

 

Neil Olson and Steve Christy rest atop the shack on Mt. Adam's summit. Note the vintage '67 climbing outfits. Mt. Hood on the horizon. The top photo is taken from the south, looking north. The bottom photo is from the north, looking south. Said to be what's left of a sulphur mine shack, the amount of ice and snow here in 1967 looks about the same as some photos taken 40 years later. When was the shack built what was the ice and snow level on the summit? It must have be less, to allow construction.
