Kris and I made it out to the Valley on Saturday. The temps were great, even warm for a while. The rock varied wildly from completely soaked, snow and ice packed, or perfect. Here are my observations which are provided without warranty:

Midnight Lightning - soaked, icy mantle, 4' snow bank at the base

Don't MMKYA - soaked at the lip

Cocaine Corner, Blue Suede Shoes, Dominator, Phone Book - all dry

Wine boulder warm-ups - dry but a lot of snow on the ground

Stick It - dry with a standing start on a 4' snowbank!

Ament Arete - dry

Thriller - damp streak, should be dry in a day or two w/o precip

King Cobra - dry

Honor Among Thieves - dry

Ahwanee Area - just drove by, it looked very snowy and unclimbable

Atlantis - climbable, maybe someone cleared the finishing holds?

Heart of Darkness, Across the Tracks - perfect

Happy Climbing!
