Hello
Climbed the bottom pitches of Polar Circus on
Wednesday with Geoff Ruttan. We bailed just before the pencil as the ice
was melting quickly from the high temperatures (+6). The lower steps were
gone when we walked down around 11AM. Moved over to Shades of Beauty which
was in pretty good shape (best thing I've seen this year so far..). Solid
screws on every pitch. Rick Blak Memorial route looks to be in good shape
as well.
Seems like a very slow start for the "regulars"....
have faith....
Cheers
