I know there has been a couple reports on this climb already but since
conditions have changed I'll add my two cents.
My guest Elisabeth and I enjoyed a mild day and fantastic ice conditions on The
Sorcerer yesterday.
The creek crossings on the drive in are pretty sporty with deep ice shelves. A
4x4 with good tires and clearance is a must.
The trail to the base is well beaten in. The entire route was dry and as of
yesterday there is no cornice threatening the climb.
