[MCR] bugaboos

In the bugaboos the last couple days.  Cold temperatures up high and new snow from last Tuesday is still sticking to high north facing terrain.  Significant precip starting last night around 9pm all through night and this morning.  As we hiked out, snow line appeared to be about 8500’, but couldn’t get a good look due to poor visability.  Up the bugaboo snowpatch col yesterday, crampons necessary, no issues with the shrund on climbers right, substantial rockfall potential both naturally and from other climbers!
