Thought we could use an ice conditions thread for this last half of the season. If there even was a 2013-2014 season....

How was it? Pictures?

Thank you

Was there on the 19th, Chouinard center flow is in pretty good shape, far right side goes from pretty thin to nothing. Center flow on Main Falls looks good but maybe a bit thin on lower section.

Thanks!

We're heading out there this weekend. Any one have updates?

I'll post something when I get back too.

Ice is still up there!!

We were there on Saturday (3/15). The approach has plenty of snow and packed well. We started the approach at 6:30a and the temp was 23 degrees so the track was well frozen.

Main wall had ice in the center from top to bottom. Chouinard falls had some "good" ice. The Tree Route and all to its right were bare.
