East Fork Climbs

Sunday I climbed what I believed to be the right route of the "Right Side Routes" in Flanders as described in Winter Dance. It was a great day but the approach was much too long for a short section of subpar ice. Monday, Jared Otto and I climbed Champagne Sherbert and found it to be in very good condition, it was a bit wet below the steep section. Wednesday, Dano and I climbed the left side of Palisade falls. We found it to be dry with many mushroom formations. The right side appeared very wet. Today (Thurs) Dano and I had an awesome day on Horsetail Falls. The first pitch was in but thin on the left. The pillar was wet and the shell of ice was starting to deteriorate, but still climbable.
