Trip report URL:

Comments: The snow field was way larger than last year and warm rain caused a kind of mini-flood in canyon. We did not bring wet-suits based on last year when flow was a trickle, so we were unprepared. We bailed after R6, but this is not a good escape I would recommend. We only could do it due to have a pro climber on the team, and even then it was very sketchy.

All anchors were functional, but some were showing wear.
