Does anyone know anything about ice conditions on Mt. Evans? I have wanted to do the route "The Road" for awhile now, curious as to whether or not its in

I did a trail run up Chicago Lakes 2 weeks ago and there was some good ice (maybe a pitch and a half of WI4) in above the bouldering area. I couldn't tell very well if the "The Road" was in but I would be surprised if its not. There is definitely some interesting ice in the drainage this year.

We climbed Martha yesterday, 11/29. Only the final step contained some ice. The others were dry mixed climbing. The snow fields in between were a mix of sugary and crusty snow.

Did a Thanksgiving climb of Alexander's Chimney. Easy boot pack until Chasm Lake, some postholing from there to the first pitch. Ice is solid on the first three pitches, still good on the chockstone pitch and the ramp after, but not nearly as fat as a few weeks ago - definitely no screws now on the thin parts. Smear of Fear still looks fat (relatively speaking) too.

Deep Freeze in very good shape but thin, brittle top of crux pitch may disappear in predicted cold snap this week. First pitch (direct start) has ice in back of chimney then delicate traverse over fragile snow mushroom to first chockstone. Unique!

Vail has been climbing nice. The Fire House area is in. The Spiral Staircase, Secrete Probation, Belfry, and a few others are in. No Desi, Thang or Seventh Tentacle.

I did All Mixed Up on Saturday and it was even fatter than pics I saw from mid November. Beautiful rare windless day. The approach trail was in decent shape, though it'll probably get covered with new snow by Wed. The descent scramble was a bit tricky with ice on the rock, but can be avoided with a rappel (we missed the anchors).
