Mount Adams and Mount Madison, White Mountains National Forest, NH

Airline Trail




Airline trail is a tough hike before you get to the alpine


The wind was howling up to 50mph, we were hoping the weather would turn in the afternoon




Because of the weather, we decided to go down to the Madison Spring Hut and wait it out 



Mount Madison obscured by clouds 





On our second attempt at the summit of Adams, the wind picked back up and we decided to head back to the hut again and go for Madison later in the afternoon
