[MCR] Rockies: Temple SW Face; snow

We climbed the SW Face of Temple today. Snow was down almost to
Sentinel Pass, a dusting down low but several cms above 3000 m.
Moderate NW winds, poor visibility and cold temperatures made it feel
like summer was over. I wore my balaclava and I haven't done that
since February.

It will take a day or two of sun to clean up solar aspects and the
upper elevation norths will be out for awhile I think.
