Mummy and Sceptre area
Climbed Mummy II today. It's still a little thin, but safe and exciting. My partner who rapped the pitch and was supposed to get all the gear, left one of my new 16cm express screws hanging there with a sling and two biners swaying in the breeze...Anyway, if someone wants to earn some good karma and 20 bucks, please drop the screw & gear off at the front counter at Northern Lights. Thanks and good climbing. Mark Rogers

Scepter was in challenging conditions today, involving hooking the whole way up so as to not disturb the somewhat unstable ice.
Mummy Coola I & II
Friday we rambled over to Mummy I and it was snow covered and gushy but used it as the approach for Mummy II. Mummy II is in early season conditions and the top step was hard ice on the right and soft and wet on the left. Gear seemed marginal after the first step.
The Amphitheatre looked thin as well but we did see someone cursing their way up the right hand line.
Enjoy!

Yeah Mummy II didn't look too bad saturday, looks like it'd be real fun. Scepter is a no go.
