Mount Adams, known by some Native American tribes as
Pahto or
Klickitat, is a potentially
active stratovolcano in the
Cascade Range.
[3] Although Adams has not erupted in more than 1,000 years, it is not considered extinct. It is the second-highest
mountain in the
U.S. state of
Washington, after
Mount Rainier.
[4]
Adams is a member of the
Cascade Volcanic Arc, and is one of the arc's largest volcanoes,
[5] located in a remote wilderness approximately 34 miles (55 km) east of
Mount St. Helens.
[6] The
Mount Adams Wilderness consists of the upper and western part of the volcano's cone. The eastern side of the mountain is designated as part of the territory of the
Yakama Nation.
[7][8]
Adams' asymmetrical and broad body rises 1.5 miles (2.4 km) above the Cascade crest. Its nearly flat summit was formed as a result of cone-building eruptions from separated vents. Air travelers flying the busy routes above the area sometimes confuse Mount Adams with nearby
Mount Rainier, which has a similar flat-topped shape.
The
Pacific Crest Trail traverses the western flank of the mountain.
