Recreation
The main recreational activities are fishing, hiking, photography and mountain climbing. There are several trails to hike.

For a photographer this area is wonderful both for the greenery and the scenery.

Killen Creek Campground is located along Killen Creek only a few miles northwest of Mount Adams. The area is heavily forested with wildflower filled meadows scattered about. The road in was rough already in July. When I visited there was a group camping before their climb up Mount Adams the next morning.
