Canadian Rockies Update: We have experienced one of the better August conditions in the past decade. Dry and stable. Climbed the Greenwood-Boles route on the north face of Mt. Edith two days ago, typically a wet route. Only one of the nine long pitches was wet. The descent gully was almost completely dry. The Kafir Strikes Back however, is still way out of condition from drainage. The descent slings were all gone or rotten. We restrung all the raps. Obviously first party up the N. Face this year, and perhaps for several years. Freezing temps down to valley floor on their way this week.
