Passed on from Steve House, IFMGA:

On 2/30/13 two parties climbed the Slawinski-Takeda and the Isaac-Huisman
routes on the north buttress of Mt. Athabasca. Travel conditions were found
to be very good with minimal snow and what snow there is being quite
compact. Conditions for the approach and descent are very close to ideal.
Other alpine routes in the area look to be in fine condition with a blend
of gray ice and snow cover visible on Athabasca's north face as well as on
the routes on the northern aspects of Mt. Andromeda.
