I Spent August 23 to 28 in the lake O'Hara area. August 24th I climbed the West Ridge of Hungabee. The Mountain is all dry..no surprise with the warm temps. Bivied two nights at Opabin Pass . At the Col there is some snow to melt for water. The glacier going to Obabin is changing fast. The schrun is quite wide but still passable, with frozen conditions. On the way up I went on the climbers left side staying off the glacier. On the way down we went on the glacier in the early morning when it was frozen. Reading in the summit registrar Hungabee does not get climbed that often.
