Hello,

Was on Amadeus, Barrier MTN today. The mixed climbing was snow covered and required a little more work to clear off. The ice was in great shape and taking short and mid length ice screws.

On the approach there were some areas with soft wind slabs which were settling but because of the still below threshold depth did not move, still anchor'd. Above the climb looked wind scoured in spots from moderate S/SW winds but still had a cross loaded appearance. 

Play safe,
