the thoughts of the radiating basalt in front me and the beating down
sun on my back while helplessly trying to hang on to a sweaty fist jam.
Neither H. nor me finds it entertaining to jam our hands in the
blistering cracks for a weekend. We decide to split and go our own ways
for the weekend. This is Thursday. I think of Adams Glacier right away.

The Adams Glacier was still in good shape, what a spring.
How was the conditon on north ridge? Were loose rocks still covered by
plenty of snow?

发帖数: 39815 | 16 I think the place he camped was just below the glacier, it is about 1 mile t
o the south of the regular camp site. The bottom of the glacier flats out an
d offers good camp spot in early season.

发帖数: 180 | 17 what you see is where i camped. I had to level out the snow a bit before
pitching the tent. It is not a good camp site. It could be fairly broken
later in the season and the slope may be more slanted with exposed glacial
ice. It never melts out there.

发帖数: 180 | 25 given how it is right now, I doubt it will open up too much in two weeks.
route finding will be a little more tricky and you will likely do many
zig-zags. One thing you can be sure, there will be a lot of blood-hungry
mosquitoes! That is a war you can never win.
