Meltout ice climb

Meltout living up to its name today. Cooked like shrimp in the sun, but climbed like heros on pastic. It must have been somewhere between 2-3deg in the sun. Overall thinner conditions, but it climbed well and took good (so I think) pro. By the afternoon it was quite wet. Estimated 5-10mm of feathery surface hoar growing on the sheltered W facing BTL approach. Solid solar crust on solar aspect at TL.

Spring like temps. Well above 0 in the sun.
