[MCR] Silk Tassel

[Public Mountain Conditions Report]

Guided Silk Tassel today, Feb 17. The route is big and blue and user  
friendly with the exception of having to dry tool for a couple of  
moves to get to the tree anchor because there is no avalanche debris  
there raising floor.

Bubble Wrap Blues has been getting climbed, but it is grey with some  
rock patches sticking through for the first 20 meters, looked like  
stubby and short screws would be your friend.

There was intermittent cloud cover there today with the sun hitting  
the route at about 11:00, when we were packing up to walk away. Could  
be a nervous place on a sunny day given that the sun hits the  
avalanche start zones at the top of Mt Field at least an hour earlier.

Happy trails,
