[MCR] Mount Victoria Sept 11th

[Public Mountain Conditions Report]

I guided Mount Victoria on September 11th from Abbot Hut to the south
summit, and descending the Huber Glacier and Huber Ledges to Lake O'Hara.
Conditions were excellent, it is very dry on the ridge.  We used crampons on
the Sickle and descending the gully to the Huber Glacier.  Crossing the
bergschrund onto the Huber Glacier was fairly easy.  I put in a v-thread to
rappel across a fairly well bridged schrund.  There are still good schrund
crossing points to ascend from the Huber Glacier onto Mount Victoria if you
want to climb up that route.
