[MCR] Rockies - Polar Circus

Hello 

We climbed the route on Sunday (November 16) and found it to be in very good shape for this time of the year.  Most of the pitches were a bit wet so the ice was soft and generally provided one swing sticks throughout.  There was about 10cms of snow in the gully and the walking in between the pitches was quite manageable.  The last 20 feet on the final pitch required a delicate touch and a body length of rock climbing to reach the anchors. 

Overall the route is a steal for the grade in its present shape.

Have fun!
