<x-tad-bigger>The conditions of the Bugaboo-Snowpatch col is rapidly changing. Its mostly ice under foot above the bergshrund. Most people are rappelling the route via 2 x 60m rappels on the climbers left side of the bergschrund. There is evidence of very large rocks rolling the length of the slope, especially on climbers right and the crevasses at the bottom of the slope are opening up and have weak snow bridges. The Pigeon Howser col is in great shape right now, with mostly snow under foot and good snow bridging on the schrund. This could change quickly with this good weather. </x-tad-bigger>jen jennifer olson jen@jenolson.ca _______________________________________________ These observations and opinions are those of the person who submitted them.
