My fellow Mountain Guide, Nick Sharpe, and I guided in King Creek yesterday,
Jan 27th. All three of the seeps are in good shape. The ice chimney that leads
into the dagger cave on the climber's right of the middle seep (the short top
roping wall) is very thin with no ice coming to ground, looks like it would be
sporty.
The second, "pillar", pitch on the 3rd seep (farthest upstream) has been
getting climbed.
Happy trails,
