Can someone provide some beta on the conditions of the N Ridge? Is there snow on the upper N ridge? Is the shrund on Sharkfin col doable? What were recent snow conditions? Thinking about climbing it this weekend. After reading the park ranger stories on a different topic I a afraid to call the station for details in fear of getting bogus information. Then again I am asking information on the internet so how crazy can I be?

Thanks

Self-registering is (was?) legal if you camp on the other side of Sharkfin Col (i.e. not in Boston Basin). To avoid dealing with the rangers, call them and find out what time the ranger station closes. Arrive there just after the closing time and self-register. Bivy at the car that night then walk in early the next morning. If you've got another night, I think it's legal to camp the next night in Boston Basin after you've spend one night in the cross-country zone.

I was going to try it five or so weeks ago. Ended up on the west ridge. The N. Ridge had a fair amount of snow on it at that time but I would think most of it would be gone by now. I would give the route a go.
