We found great spring ice throughout. On the lower wall it was important to select the right groove as some have had more sun affect. The upper wall was in good shape. There was some water flowing on the far right, and ice for gear on p2 was widely spaced. 65m from the ledge to the upper cave (p2) right now. We cleaned a number of hanging daggers from above the cave on rappel.
Wx obs. High +2C. Winds C-M from West. Partly cloudy. HN 1-2cm between Lake Louise and SK Crossing. Ridgetop winds M-S from West w snow transport. No new avelanches observed in the vicinity of Weeping Wall.
Hwy 93N is quite icy N of SK Crossing. Bring your skates.
