Did the Ice Cliff Glacier on 7-1-thru 7-2-2011. Conditions were on the soft side. Crux for us was the ice cliff. Must have gotten off line. We were a team of 3 and used 3 screws a few times and 3 pickets a few times. Upper berg was fairly easy with one big high step. Didn't have to try the Vertical Limits move, but in coming weeks it may require some creativity or skirting down and to the left.

On descent, Sherpa Glacier bergs and crevasses were filled sufficiently with runnel snow to be walkovers. Cascadia route still all snow.

Worst part was the mosquitoes on the hike in and out.
