Approach is mostly free of snow until the trees before the lake. Snow shoes recommended from here around lake and up to the gully. Gully is in great condition for ice ax crampon action. Traverse is clean rock for first half and then ice ax and crampons are suggested for second half of traverse with continuous snow through hour glass and all the way to the summit (see pics). However the ice bulge has barely any snow left on it, potentially leaving about a 10-15' section of ice. |
