[MCR] Athabasca

Rob Owens and I took a couple of groups up Athabasca North Glacier
today. Little change from the last time I was there about 10 days ago
except the crevasse bridges at the bottom end of the ramp continue to
slowly deteriorate and the trail keeps getting pushed further climbers
left, closer to the Silverhorn.

The Silverhorn serac has not been active for several weeks now.

Just a skiff of new snow with the cold front that passed through last
night.

Otherwise good, fast conditions up Atha-B.
