[MCR] Glacier/Rockies

The NW Ridge of Sir Donald is still very snowy on the N side of the ridge.
The hot weather will help it along, but it may take a while yet before it
is in perfect climbing condition. Even the approach to the col is still
significantly snow covered.

The Goodsirs appear to be very out of condition....maybe August at the rate
we are going.

Storm Mountain looked drier than anything else we looked at today.

A picture of Stanley is attached as well.
