Received a report from Scott Leroux on the conditions at the Narrows in Eastern PA. Scott Reports: "The Ice along the Narrows has been in for the past 2 weeks and someone plows the main parking lot to fit approx. 5 or so vehicles. Today was a good day because there was only one other party there for the first time, and I have been climbing during the week. If you go by the Griz guide, it looks like the upper half of 45 mph is in and in good shape. The entire main flow is in good shape from bottom to top and the last ice storm filled in broken ice and the old chandelier formation but new chandelier is forming. The top half of Banana is in. The main gully is in but very wet. Dead Deer gully is in good shape and another gully farther north which I want to check out next week. I've seen climbers on all the flows except for Banana the past 2 weeks. Overall, the climbing was wet today, but I managed to find some dry ice on the main flow. If the weather holds, the ice should be good until at least next Thursday."

Edit on 2/10/2014: Also found this unique aerial perspective of climbers on Main Flow (WI4 330'). Check out this cool video taken on 2/9/2014.  http://vimeo.com/86259657
