Upper Mummy's

The two petes (tapley and thompson) and I made our way up the mummy's on saturday. Found Mummy 3 in all ice conditions no need for the rock gear that we brought up there. But the pitch was long and sickty and just great overall. Mummy 4 was like a shower and I found it difficult maybe in the WI 5+/6-. There is an overhang 20 of so feet off the ground that is managable. Bring some longer screws because the ice is pretty slushy. I would imagine mummy 4 to keep getting bigger with the amount of water that was coming down yesterday. We reset some of the pitons and added another sling on the top anchor. Sorry no pics.
