Comments
Comments: Lowe’s Path is a great option for summiting Adams. The trail is wet and muddy in quite a number of places - likely from the recent rains. Your boots will get muddy and in many areas the mud wasn’t avoidable without going off trail (embrace it). Some rocks with wet moss were rather slippery. Above treeline, cairns mark the trail well.

Potential afternoon showers and storms forecasted from MWOBS appeared to stay away, making for a wonderful day on the higher summits.
