Posted: Tue Dec 30, 2008 10:48 pmPosted: Sun Jan 04, 2009 11:37 pmI went up on new Year's Day and the Labyrinth was very icy. The glacier was firm but cramponing was good. The glacier stays in shadow for most of the climb if you get an early start (we left at 1:30am) so it was cold and breezy on the way up to the summit crater.
