-8, cloudy, and calm winds on the backroad in Field today. Up to 30cm of new snow in open areas near the base and between pitches. No slab properties in the snow where we travelled today, below treeline.
The route seems to climb and protect well at M6 WI6 with some good hooks through the roof on the second pitch. Large daggers do threaten the approach and the first pitch, so something to watch out for during significant temperature changes.
