Mount Adams, Stratovolcano in Cascade Range, Washington, US.

Mount Adams rises to 3,743 meters with multiple glaciers covering its slopes, including the Adams Glacier and the Klickitat Glacier on its flanks.

The last confirmed volcanic eruption occurred in 1060 AD, and the mountain received its name from the second President of the United States, John Adams.

Native American tribes consider the mountain sacred, referring to it as Pahto, and incorporate it into their traditional stories and ceremonies.

The South Climb Trail serves as the primary route to reach the summit, requiring proper climbing equipment and careful attention to weather conditions.

The volcanic field surrounding Mount Adams contains 120 basaltic volcanoes spread across 1,250 square kilometers of the Cascade Range territory.
