Here are a couple shots taken Dec. 21 of the upper Mummy climbs. [b]Mummy III[/b] is about 2/3 rock with good gear and solid, but thin, ice when you reach it.

Most have been gaining the ice via rock climbing to the right past a fixed pin. We pulled on the pin with an ice tool and it nearly fell out. It will likely hold body weight, but not a very long fall. Other gear can be placed nearby. Be careful! [img]http://www.rocky.edu/~kalakayt/mummy4.jpg[/img]
