Climbed the right
side of the Weeping Wall today. Good, sometimes slightly wet conditions on
all routes but not bad for early season. The upper wall (Weeping
Pillar) also looked quite good from the distance
but likely harder than WI5 right now. Only one other party around
today, who did Sniffelin Gully - first pitch sounded pretty hollow still
with lots of water running underneath.
-14C at the parking
lot at 9.30 AM, light to moderate snowfall started around noon with warming
temps and strong winds with spindrifts kicked in later in the afternoon.
Icefield Parkway is all snow covered and around the Saskatchewan River Crossing
quite icey. All in all a very wintery ambiance out
there.....
Cheers,
