Was up at Abbott's Pass today. There is still a fair bit of snow above 2700 m on all aspects in this area, including a one meter drift behind the outhouse! Mostly about ankle deep on the ledges on Victoria though, making footing slick and insecure. On Lefroy the storm snow has mostly sloughed off, leaving a hard surface. Lots of snow on the rock ledges making rockfall a concern.
It was sunny and hot today so hopefully things will start to dry out more, but in the early afternoon we had a good look at the west aspects of Hungabee and Deltaform and they still had a fair bit of snow on them above 2700m. Mark Klassen Mountain Guide www.alpinism.com
