Leutholds has been skied numerous times. I think the main thing is to get on it before the big runnel forms in the hourglass.

Everyone needs to get away from their computers, take the day off, and go climbing. Really people come on..... [This message has been edited by Billy (edited 03-23-2001).]

I don't know from first hand knowledge, but I would say it would be good, cause we're having freeze thaws now. Its at least worth going to have a look. [This message has been edited by Billy (edited 03-21-2001).]

I climbed 11 oclock a week ago or so and got a great look at the headwall. The rock looks pretty bad, but there are ways around that. You might only have to climb a short section of it. Of more concern I think would be the snow softness, it gets so much sun. Pre- dawn on a cold day would be good I think. Look for a 6000 foot freezing level day or colder. Hope this info helps.

We climbed 11 oclock couloir on Broken Top on Sunday 3-11. Good step kicking was had on the route. On the traverse to the NW ridge it was windscoured. Perfect cramponing. Anything south facing was heating up and getting soft rapidly. West and north aspects were wind scoured. I'd expect similar conditions in the rest of the Three Sisters
