Ridge between Obstruction Peak & Colony Baldy
Does anyone have info on this connecting ridge? I'm planning a 2-day trip to summit Mt. Adams, Columbia, and these two bi-cents, likely from the Horn Creek TH. The rest of the route seems straightforward, but I can't find anything on this part.

I have not hiked the ridge between Obstruction and Adams, but I did eyeball it a while back.
Skip ahead to photo 15 in this trip report for a preview of the ridge.

Here is a picture of most of it from Colony Baldy 03/07/2021. Doesn't look particularly spicy, but hard to know until you've laid feet on it, which we did not do that day, the trenching along Rainbow Trail was brutal
