Climbed Silverhorn yesterday with good conditions.  Anywhere from 5 to 40 cms of new snow on top of good ice.  New snow was hiding several small holes mid way up route.  It was 6 degrees in the parking lot at 4 a.m. and stayed cool until around 11 when the sun popped out of the clouds.  North face looked to be in good shape with one party on it
 
Cheers
