Whitemans is in awesome condition right now. We took the money line right up the middle, good gymanistic moves past big mushrooms and small roofs. Had to clean out a good amount of hollow type ice every now and then, but apart from that mainly single swing sticks on the second pitch. We belayed at the first big cave on the right. There are many rests and so I thinks it felt like a solid WI 5. Several .5 wet sloughs off sidewalls and gullies on approach. Redman Soars looks to be in excellent shape as well. Enjoy,
