[MCR] Rockies, Mt Yamnuska, Dreambed

[Public Mountain Conditions Report]

Climbed Dreambed on Mt Yamnuska today, May 13, with fellow guide, Rob  
Owens. The climber's approach trail is dry until you get to the base  
of the face. We walked through some ankle deep snow traversing to the  
route. The route is in fine dry shape with the exception of the last  
pitch which was dripping water. We finished via the last pitch of Red  
Shirt.

There is snow on the back side of the mountai, boot-top deep whale  
blubber when we hit it. We snow-scrambled down to the Devil's Right  
Hand rappels and were at the base in three steep rappels (saved us  
from carrying our approach shoes up the route).

Happy trails
