Nice nice, did you climb on Nesakwatch or Rexford?

[giza]

Did Nesakwatch North. The north aspect of Nesakwatch South (and likely Rexford) was plastered in snow so we didn't carry on with the enchainment. It was cool up there this weekend. Cornices hanging over the Nesakwatch/Rexford gully, distant avalanches and rockfall, scotch, port, bong rips, and some scrambling. Good times!
