[MCR] Rockies: Abbotts

Public Mountain Conditions Report mcr at informalex.org

Was up at Abbott's Pass today. There is still a fair bit of snow
above 2700 m on all aspects in this area, including a one meter drift
behind the outhouse! Mostly about ankle deep on the ledges on
Victoria though, making footing slick and insecure. On Lefroy the
storm snow has mostly sloughed off, leaving a hard surface. Lots of
snow on the rock ledges making rockfall a concern.

It was sunny and hot today so hopefully things will start to dry out
more, but in the early afternoon we had a good look at the west
aspects of Hungabee and Deltaform and they still had a fair bit of
snow on them above 2700m.
