Any recent beta or photos? Thanks! AD

Edited: putting this in the "13ers" forum because the intent would be to climb either Taylor or Powell (or both) afterwards.

Two weeks ago. In my professional opinion, it probably looks similar but with less snow.

Thanks! Looks like this was taken from either Sharkstooth or the Grepon? In that picture, is the regular finish up the runneled couloir right of center? If so, looks like it comes close to connecting to the ridge, which is nice. Of course not necessarily true 2 weeks after...
