Paul_detrick Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 (edited) For those who want to save a trip, the only ice in now is the punchbowl, but it is in nice shape. Climbed there Saturday. Nothing is in from Soap lk up to the bowl, and is warm and sundy right now, so don't look good for this next weekend ether. Climbed falling falls Friday, but there is access isuses there.

Paul_detrick Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 Went up climbing today and not much is in yet. Beer routes nothing, Guinness is in but looks thin at the top,Champagne very little ice at all,Children of the sun nothing, Clockwork orange frist pitch has ice but thin, 2nd pitch does not touch, 3rd pitch down but thin, nothing else is in but the punchbowl, lots of death sickles, so we climbed Trotsky's Revenge, fair shape good ice. Thats the update for banks. Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisr Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 went to banks today and it's pretty much the same report as what paul said. Punchbowl was in great but the deathsickles were raining down. Trotskys revenge is still in but it was pouring water. The cable has a decent amount of ice, zenith and salt & pepper look thin but climbable. there's tons of ice all the way up but most have deteriorated at the top outs.
