Climbed Shades of Beauty yesterday. The route is in great early season
shape, offering good climbing and lots of protection. The approach trail
and slopes have 10-30cm of recent storm snow with minimal wind effect and
the travel is easy. Rick Blak Memorial Route also looks in great shape.
See attached pic. Stanley Falls Senior looked climbable but not as
inviting as the North facing climbs.
