Outdoor Excursions & Topics Worth the Time to Post
A large group of people set out to do this hike as an unofficial effort. We started with ten people & ended up as three people that would end up doing both Madison & Adams. Per usual the forecast provided to us was overly cautious in my opinion, which is fine as I understand the…
Started this hike at about 0145 am after becoming aware that the full moon would be at peak around 3am that same morning. I have often attempted full moon summits & have been socked in before so this was rewarding. The temperature was 14 degrees F at the parking lot. The campground side parking was…
Started the hike at 630 am. The temperature in the parking lot was 16 degrees (F). When it is in the teens i start layering. Bottom is thick wool socks, under armor leggings, long johns, rain pants as shell. Top is under armor cold gear base layer, fleece layer, then rain shell jacket. In my…
The hike started at about 0415, & i wore a base layer (UA Coldgear top & bottom), as well as heavier darn tough brand socks. My stiff soled boots were still completely saturated from doing washington on the 17th, so i had to use some trail running shoes i have. I am feeling the pain…

Hike started at 0310 hours, in the northbound Basin Parking lot i was the only person there on a Tuesday morning. It was in the low 40s, perfect for my tastes. My intentions were to get a sunrise hike. The summit forecast was clear right in the morning then cloudy which ended up being true.…
Started the hike at 245am from Glencliff parking lot (solo hike), was hoping to see the full moon & get some pictures. The forecast was some clouds (summit), ended up being that the summit was socked in with slight wind maybe 5-10mph. Not many maples down the backside going through tunnel brook & a bit…
