Went back to Professor’s this morning and the "high water warning" applies to 
that route now too.

Water was pouring behind the 1st pitch, had formed a passage on the right of 
the 2nd pitch and had pretty much gutted the 3rd pitch. We bailed on top of 
pitch 2 when the volume of the the running water became hard to ignore. 

Not sure if the route will survive but that was a whole lot of change in a 
short time to a warm piece of ice. I would imagine the whole route is hovering 
around the warm side of 0 degrees celsius now.  

It may cool down eventually, but, for now, can you say “water fall”?
