Mt Stuart, N Ridge

[IceScrewed]

We are planning on heading in Sunday to do this climb but with the late spring are wondering how serious the traverse after the rappel might be --when I did the route in the past (in early July) it was very straight forward. I've not seen any TRs for this year.

Anybody with current info on the route's condition--or just observations from being in the area of the N side recently?

Judging from the rime on the upper west ridge in the recent SGC TR, you're probably better off in boots and maybe crampons after the rappel. Doesn't really look like we're into tennies w/crampons and rock shoe season on Stuart yet...
