A couple of pictures for those wondering about ice climbing conditions in
the Columbia Icefield Area.
A horizontal crack in the ice is completely across Weeping Wall ice column
just below lower step. Hard to see clearly in this attachment but can pick
out the start of it in the center of the picture.

Curtain Call - lower portion and column still look blue but top pitch looks
white, thin and rotten.
