Just back from a foray to the Sir Donald Uto
On our descent the clouds cleared somewhat and weather was improving, though the occasional shower was still rolling through. We could see that Sir Donald was quite snowy above the elevation of the rappels and major scree ledge – so the summit tower looks totally out of shape for now – perhaps by the end of the week if the forecasted sunshine and warm temps materialize it would be doable. Uto will just need some sunshine to dry out the rock and it should be good to go.
Overall much less snow then fell in the rockies but still enough to put higher rock objectives out of condition – sorry I didn’t get a look at the
Cheers,
