Guided Aquarius, Fearful Symmetry, and Rainbow Serpent today. What an amazing day of ice climbing!
Aquarius is dry and fat, WI4
Fearful Symmetry is a full 70m up to WI6. It has sections of overhanging ice with good protection except for the first pillar. Dry.
Rainbow Serpent: Dry ice w/ good rests between awkward and funky moves.
Very windy today (west). Beware of the unsupported and sublimating ice features that are numerous in the Recital Hall. We saw one significant dagger break off spontaneously due to the wind.
