At time of print:

Home boulders, 100% dry no seepage on ANYTHING.
Val-David Les Dammes - Snow on top and all around Elizabeth boulder.

Niagara Glen - Joe, give us your summary.

This should help everyone out.

Most of the Glen is like this... A lot of snow in most areas and a lot of seepage happening now that it's getting warmer.

Yeh i was pretty surprised at how much was there. Almost every boulder has snow on it. A lot of lines are wet, about half or so. I wont go back till april/may.

I figured Home Cliff would be mostly dry by now... damn the rainy weekend weather.

As of today (March 10), the bolt lines on Castle rock were 75% dry, cruxes 90% dry. Will this kind of weather hold?

McKenzie Pond ... a couple of problems are weeping a bit, but certainly worth the drive.
