Had a great day on 5/31/14 climbing the Dana Couloir! The trail up glacier canyon had patchy but firm snow with mostly trail hiking. Soft neve was encountered from the base to the top of the gully. Ice is starting to form on climbers left.

Weather was warm with bluebird sky’s and the snow conditions were perfect for climbing up or skiing down!

Conditions from the approach.

Perfect!

Fixed line ascension practice on steep firm snow.

Great belay stances.

Fun climbing up steep neve!
