[MCR] icefields and A2

4 days at icefields...
Sounds like there is less snow here at the icefields than in other places..
Climbed A2 via ice face which was in good shape. Upper glacier as
well decent and the rock dry
Descended climbers right of boundary glacierand as previously
reported it is passable but a bit gross with the dirty ice. We did a
1/2 length lower on a short step which you could down climb but it
was just easier with 13 of us. still a few slots to cross below,
though mostly small ones as you traverse right to the bare ice.
