Tried the SW ridge for the first time yesterday. No snow anywhere on the route, including the death traverse. Partner tried for 30 minutes to make it across, pulling off or otherwise sending loose rocks tumbling down with every advance. He'd only made it about half way before deciding to turn back. I'll return earlier in the year when there's some snow on that bad boy...wouldn't recommend it at this point in the season. Jonathan

So what'd you find up there Kirk? Thanks, Jonathan
