Snow Coverage on the West Ridge off Mt. Adams
« on: 07/18/12, 12:11 AM »

I remember looking at the West Ridge, (skiers right of the White Salmon/Avalanche Glacier), and thinking that would be a fun line to ski.  Snow coverage looked fairly good when I was down there two weeks ago, but I'm curious to see if it will still be a skiable route by next week.  If anyone has any recent pics of the west side of Mt. Adams, more so skiers right of the White Salmon Glacier area, I would really appreciate it.  Thanks.

From last Sunday.  By the looks of thing, I think you will probably have to ski the ridge all the way to the end, as there is no obvious way to access the White Salmon.

Thanks for the much needed info!  The photo clearly shows what I wanted to ski, but it doesn't go all the way through.  Next year!  I guess, I'll have to check out the Mazama Glacier or maybe some other routes while they are still doable.
