[MCR] Temple

An awesome day on Temple normal route today, clouds dodging around the
peaks, warm, no wind. Snow in the past 24 hrs, a skiff in the meadows
but boot top on the summit ridge with drifts up to shin deep. Settling
and melting today but the next few cold mornings expect verglas on the
cliffs and slick snow on the packed trail from the crowds, crampons
might be an option.

Fay is snowy again after looking grey and icy a few days ago when I was
on the Grand Sentinel. Don't expect it to look inviting for too long
with a return to clear skies and warm temps.
