 | Comments: |
While ascended Madison first via Valley View and descended Adams vis Airline, suggest ascending Airline due to running water and mud once below tree line. Put on Hillsounds on Valley View around 4000’ then barebooted from hut entire rest of hike. Great day with no wind and especially great summit views from Madison |
