Adventure Ridge 4-10-16

I’ve been looking at this loop for a couple of years…glad I did it yesterday. I used the South Breitenbush River trail for the first 2.5 miles, at which point I put the snowshoes on and headed up to Adventure Ridge. I had a couple of points I wanted to get to, so I didn’t do the full ridge…instead I took the ridge to Bear Point, then continued west along the ridge to Quitters Point, then on to the end of the ridge where I dropped straight down back to my truck. Beautiful snow cornices along Adventure Ridge, and an awesome forest thrash back down to the trailhead.
