Conditions relayed by Aaron Beardmore  MG:

Went to Assiniboine past 2 days.  Climbed Strom and Sturdee in good
conditions but did not attempt Assiniboine.  Good freeze last night.  There
is significant snow from the red band and above.  It looks like the route
would be manageable for a strong fast party as long as snow conditions
remained firm.  The Gmoser highway was in good shape with a snow cone still
present before gaining the ledges.  Crampons were used for this.

Stay tuned for more details later today.
