San juan Ice Conditions Update
Posted at 12:00pm on Jan 15th 2010 by Clint Cook
Warm weather has changed some routes, so I thought I would post and update.
Ice Park: Fat City
Dexter Creek Slabs: Good Condition
Bride's Veil aka Skyrocket: Not recommended. Was good for a bit, but fragile and hollow now. the top may have fallen down.
Fall Creek/Talisman: Some guys climbed the Ribbon, Birdbrain, and Talisman. Looked sporting, probably not a good idea for the average mortal. But if you fancy yourself a hardman with something to prove...
Skylight climbs: Good shape, some are wet and growing fast.
Horsetail is good, Bear Creek is getting super hollow with the warmth.
Engineer climbs that were in are getting slushy.
Eureka climbs are fat and moderate.
Ames Ice Hose is thin but picked out, fairly standard for the route.
Bridalveil is getting more traffic, standard WI5 conditions.
Not sure about Silverpick and the Bone, probably in though.
That's all I can think of off the top of my head. Give a call if you have questions.
Cheers, Clint 970-325-4925
