Climbed on Sunday 12/27/09. Was minus 12 degrees at the trailhead but M2 and the Scepter were dripping wet. M2 was also dinner plating.

scepter and m2
went and did scepter and mummy 2 yesterday. both were in great conditions. scepter was a little chandeliered at the bottom but the whole thing was hero ice once you broke through the chandeliers. mummy 2 was pretty brittle and dinner-platey towards the top.
Scepter still in great shape - ? about Bingo World
Climbed Scepter and Mummy II yesterday. The high traffic & sun are showing on Mummy II, but still good climbing. Scepter is showing almost no signs of the warm temps & sun and didn't seem to have been getting much traffic. Still huge & blue with lots of fun chandaliers. I'm guessing it's going to be good through the end of the month.
Also, looked like Bingo world was touching down, but getting LOTS of sun. Saw someone climb it and would love to know what kind of shape it's in...

Hey!!
Sounded like you were having fun on Septre!! I was the one climbing Bingo, and it is in 'climbable' shape. still thin, however, the back side is getting enough ice to hold weight. It was wet, and the transfer onto the curtain is steep. bring a bar of soap for a dirt bag shower while you belay the second up!
Was there today as well, and a lot more stuff was falling off. I think it would still be climb-able tomorrow EARLY. Good luck!!
