Climbed from 8-11 in the Stanley Mitchell area
President glacier had excellent coverage and travel despite warm
temperatures (+6C in AM).
The Bergshrund near the col was well bridged further climbers right
although where the tracks were (near the edge) it was less than a
meter thick. The cornice above the 'schrund' as mentioned in earlier
posts has mostly fallen off with some smaller chunks still hanging on.
The glacier up to MacArthur peak was just the same.
Snowed last night down to 2400m and didn't look like it was going
anywhere, especially on North aspects.
