Caveman talks shit if he says there are shrund problems right now. I was up there on friday and the coulouir was in stellar form. There is about a 15 foot wide bridge that crosses the shrund between it and the coulouir walls. Just don't be like the group of 4 mountaineers i saw trying to climb it at 5 in the evening. Boy did it look like they endured a suffer fest.
Suffer!! I'm with dru on this one you all missed the snowy highway to the base of that route (details only $15). Did the face on wed. though a little soft in places, it was worth the fine mixed conditions on the summit pyramid. Do not fear the slush.
