[MCR] Attempted North Face of Fay

[Public Mountain Conditions Report]

On Sept 18, a guest and I attempted the North Face of Fay, but turned around after the traverse pitch on the Perren Route due to verglass and snow on the approach.  Was 0 degree at the parking lot at 04:00 a.m. The last section to get on to the glacier looked a bit desperate!  I am sure it would be even more exciting with last night's and today's new snow.  Where we turned around there was about 5 to 10 cm.
