i doubt that....that route needs alot more snow on it b4 it would be in prime conditions. and anyways, freezing level is going way up....
erik-
i should've posted a pic perhaps but there was fair bit of snow that dumped at that elevation over the last couple days. it may not be in prime condition but it would be climbable.
you're right though, if the freezing level is going up
JUST CUZ SNOW FELL DOES NOT MEAN IT WOULD BE CLIMBED IN ANY CONDITION OTHER THEN SHITTY SNOW ON SHITTY ROCK.
I WOULDNT EVEN THINK ABOUT THIS PEAK WITHOUT MORE SNOW....ALOT MORE.
BUT I AM SURE YOU COULD CLIMB IT IN ANY CONDITION, BUT I WOULDNT OFFER IT UP TO SOMEONE NEW TO THE AREA WHO IS PROLLY LOOKING FOR GOOD SNOW AND ICE CLIMB TO DO WHEN IT IS SPARSLY COVERED WITH EARLY SEASON SNOW.

just for the sake of reading comprehension, i said soon. not "it's ready now" and i qualified it by saying if this weather keeps up. didn't realize at the time freezing levels were going WAY up.
