Hello all,

Wondering if anyone has been in the Valley recently and can give me an update on the wetness of the Captain (particularly the Nose). Hoping to be there in early March. It looks like warm, sunny weather for the foreseeable future, so I'm hoping to leave the snorkel at home.

Any insight would be greatly appreciated!

Just got back from the valley today. Normal runoff drippings along the east wall, horsetail running. Pretty much the entire west side is dry looking from the ground. Nose was empty today and no obvious wet sections besides normal seeping here and there. As long as anything big doesn't come in between now and then, you'll be fine
