Wednesday - August 6, 1986 page 4

The day started out up hill and eventually leveled off to ramble over the slopes of Mt. Adams. The trail wandered through a variety of mountain forests, alpine meadows, and rocky slopes, all of which were covered with many different types of wild flowers When the trail elevation was finally high enough to be out of the trees, the surrounding views were gorgeous. Each corner or hill of the trail displayed a new spectacular view. The sides of the mountain above the trail held several ice glaciers and the trail slopes crossed many rocky stream beds and passed below several rock bluffs.






  There was great
    variety in the
 landscape; there
     was visible
evidence of harsh
      weather.







 The view around
   every corner,
 revealed some-
  thing new and
   spectacular.
