[MCR] East Ridge of Mt Temple, Aug 23, 2009

We had a great day out on the East Ridge of Mt Temple today!  The route is dry and in excellent condition.  There was 10-20cm of firm snow over the ice on the glacier making travel at the top very pleasant.

 

Aluminum crampons worked fine on the glacier today.  If it melts much more they might feel a bit insecure in a couple of places.

Cheers, Conrad Janzen
