talk about low snow year!

 

{edit} its actually too bad you didnt get the weather to keep going, as ICG is a really nice, comfortable moderate route through a really spectacular area! The upper couloir is fairly moderate except for the cornice at the top. But its good you bailed, fumbling around looking for the descent route once you exit the route is difficult enough in good weather. Once the road opens, go back and do the entire route in a day car-to-car, its a great trip done light!
