Middle Palisade conditions
Posted: Tue Sep 08, 2009 2:32 am
Hi...
Does anyone have any current information on the conditions on Middle Palisade via the NE face? I'm thinking of heading up there next weekend, and I'm wondering:
a) whether it's currently necessary to cross the Middle Pal glacier to get to the route?
b) the glacier conditions -- snow or ice, bergschrund, etc.?
Basically, can I leave the axe and crampons in the car?
Thanks,
Peter
