Mt Adams Attempt

5 of us from work made an attempt at climbing/skiing Mt. Adams on June 24/25.
Unfortunately I and one other didn't make it. Jed, Chris and Linden got the glory. Dave and I suffered through blister from rental boots on the way up, so we decided to opt out of the summit attempt.
We skiied up to about 8500', camped on a georgeous bivy site, then skiied back down while the oter three skiied to the summit then skiied down.

Here is a photo of the view at sunrise from our camp site.
That's Mt. Hood in the distance


Here is a photo of me skiing down.



It was very dissapointing not summiting. Getting in a bit better shape and some better equipment should slove that for next year.
