Mt Adams (12,276') is the lonesome one of the trio, languishing in obscurity in the shadows of its two more famous brethren, Mt St Helens and Mt Hood. Just outside Trout Lake, Mt Adams is a fantastic playground for alpinists. The dog route, the South Spur route, can be seen on the right skyline of the peak, as well as Piker's Peak (the false summit).
