Had an opportunity to head up to Illumination Saddle (to practice some self arrest w/ a friend who doesn't climb....yet), and surprisingly, it was bluebird skies up there, with some ominous looking clouds that hovered around, but seemingly never on, Hood. Anyway, the Reid looks good. A couple of crevasses have opened, and the bergschrund at the base of the Reid Headwall route is open as well, but looks to be in good shape. A cloud was hovering a bit farther away, obscuring the view of the ramp to get on Yocum, so I can't comment on that. From what I could see, looks like Leuthold and the Reid HW would still be good for a go.

Anyway, hope this helps someone out. This coming weekend would be a good time to get either one done before they're out of shape, I would guess.

Schweet. Thanks for the update - I'm sure someone will find this info useful.
