Comments

« Skied » Wilson from the north on April 26th

No snow until above the water fall /cliff band you have to bypass

Above that good travel in the morning isothermal snow in the evening

The creek can still be crossed back and forth on some avalanche debris up high but some of the bridges are becoming thin and worrisome in the afternoon

Lot’s of dead fall in the forest down low made for hard bushwhacking

Cornices on the ridge can be easily bypassed on climbers right by staying close to rocks.

No open crevasses to navigate, probed between 130 and 250.

Crusty snow on the glacier
