Riley81, You replied to Rich that water would be available in the gully that bypasses the Gendarme (i.e. the Regular N Ridge route). What did the gully conditions look like? Snow in there? Saw it from a distance this weekend and it looked like it might be snowy up in that section. Also, do you know if people who were accessing the ridge via the normal snow gully felt like crampons were essential for the glacier crossing to the gully? Thanks.
