[MCR] Rockies- Evans Thomas creek ice/water.

Climbed in Evans Thomas Creek wednesday and today. Still climbable today but since wednesday the ice has shrunk dramatically. An abalakov that I bult on wednesday was over 1/2 melted out by mid morning today.

As of this afternoon, Moonlight was climbable, Snowline was climbable but had LOTS of running water. 2 low for Zero was mostly gone and Chantilly's upper pitch is almost gone.

Lots of small bits of rock and ice falling today and it wasn't a great place to hang around at the base. Will likely stay kinda spooky till it gets below zero and stays there for awhile.

Trail is good with one "sporty" creek crossing.
