We went in about 10:00 and found some pretty sun-baked ice to play with. The right-most free-standing pillar has an unhealthy crack across the top of it, so we didn't do that. The middle steep chunk is OK but pretty sun-smashed, climbing up the groove is OK. The left side wasn't inspirational. The lower-angle slabs on the right were OK, as is a big fat chunk of ice to their left. Overall a lot of icicles falling off when the sun came out and a very spring-like feel to the situation. It definitely seems more like early April than March to me at least down low. Up high it's still fully winter, a friend set off a nice slab up on the Wapta on Sunday. So a lot of variation between the lower elevations ("spring") and up high, where it's still buried surface hoar/"winter."
