Since then we've had another dusting and milder rain to remove it. This weekend looks like more of the same with cold but dry on saturday morning (I'll be on the Aonach Eagach) followed by warmer rain later then a dusting of fresh snow on Sunday.
Aonach Eagach had one patch of old snow just before last climb to Meall Dearg which was about 20ft across but avoidable with care and may be smaller now.
Curved Ridge had no old snow that was unavoidable until the cairn below Crowberry Tower. To go left around the Tower you would have to go onto large and exposed old snow where a slip could be catastrophic (axe or axe and crampons advisable) or you can go right around the Tower traversing across the top of Easy Gully on a loose and exposed path to the crest of Crowberry Ridge which is greasier and looser than anything on Curved Ridge but no technically harder.
