Today Sarah Hueniken and I adventured up Ranger Creek. We had fun on R & D and Chalice and the Spoon. It snowed less than 1cm.  Light winds and partially cloudy skies. 
We had good protection on both routes, placing many 10 - 19cm screws. We placed an abolocov at 55m on Chalice. 

We heard of a friend getting turned around by a moose with a big rack this afternoon on the way up to ranger creek, something to watch out for,  : )

R & D was a bit wet and hollow to start, picked out holds, but good screws.
