After dropping 100' from the summit of Abigail Adams peak, I continued on to Mt. Adams summit. I was hoping to also do Sam and John Quincy peaks but was running out of time to get down before dark. It was a beautiful bluebird day with about a 5mph breeze. Only half a dozen of us at the top. Made a quick stop at Madison Spring Hut on the way down. My first NH 4Ker in 6 years. #25/NH4K
