Climbed the SE ridge of Mt. Lady MacDonald from Canadian Forks in Cougar Creek yesterday.
The rock pitches are mostly dry but we did have to wallow through some short snow patches above 2100m.
The snow is definetly melting in the front ranges above 2000m but Front Range North faces are still packing the potential for some nasty wet slides for another week at least.
Rivers are rising and it feels like spring, Hallelujah!
