Climbed the right side of the Weeping Wall today. Good, sometimes slightly wet conditions on all routes but not bad for early season. The upper wall (Weeping Pillar) also looked quite good from the distance but likely harder than WI5 right now. Only one other party around today, who did Sniffelin Gully - first pitch sounded pretty hollow still with lots of water running underneath.
-14C at the parking lot at 9.30 AM, light to moderate snowfall started around noon with warming temps and strong winds with spindrifts kicked in later in the afternoon. Icefield Parkway is all snow covered and around the Saskatchewan River Crossing quite icey. All in all a very wintery ambiance out there.....
