Went to the Devil’s Gap area yesterday and here’s how things are looking:

Weathering Heights: Great shape, loads of V-threads set up, good stepping and bridging in the steeper part of the first pitch

Anorexia Nervosa: Fist pitch is not in but it looks like one can easily walk around it on the right and reconnect for the upper pitches. Rest looks climbable

Wicked Wanda, Aquarius, Sunshine: All looks good and parties who climbed it reported phat conditions

Malignant Mushroom: Looks phat too!

Frozen Fungi: Not in

 

Driving: Only little, compacted snow on the road, relatively good conditions.

 

Avalanche Hazard: Not much snow in most areas. Whatever little snow there is has been scoured and blown around. Caution in snow filled gullies, should you be able to find one!

 

Cheers,

Jorg Wilz
