<p>Professor Falls April 8 2023
Warm day and cloudy, we did the approach on mtb from the parking lot of Bow falls, most of the pavement was clear ,some sections slushy snow
At the base we saw a party of 3
The ice is in fairly good condition but very wet ,make sure bring a good gore tex and gloves
Pitch 1: fat and blue ,very wet like river
Pitch 2: center line half lower part was ok the ice , very wet
Pitch 3: fat and blue ,very wet, I choose the left side and mostly dry !
Pitch 4: fat,blue and plastic fairly dry
Pitch 5: good ice and wet
Pitch 6: i decided left side dry and mushrooms, bring long ice screws to protect!!! Some crusty ice sections
Disclaimer!!! Make your own assessment before you go, getting warmer and ice conditions can change quickly, this was my experience today , no signs of avalanche debris
Have fun and be safe !!
