Route: Notch Couloir and Cables Info: Conditions are changing quickly. With that in mind: Due to some good, recent freezes the Notch is in Prime condition. Broadway has some snow but not at any of the tricky spots. Hard styrofoam snow the entire way; even surprisingly firm near the top. The 5.5 chimney is completely smegged in ice making for a more award and tricky climb. Due to the freezing and north aspect of the Cables route our descent had hard snow as well. Lower cables was covered in ice. The snow never softened up and we had to front point for the entire descent. The keyhole may be a better descent option at the moment. Pic 1: Lower Notch Pic 2: Upper Notch Pic 3: Icy Chimney out of Notch Pic 4: Hard snow on North Face. Pic 5: Still lots of snow on the North Face.
