In reply to geoff b:
Agree completely. Was up there on Sunday and although it had a nice, alpine atmosphere, nothing except the ridges look fun - there was plenty of mushy stuff about and the cornices look wet and dodgy. What ice there was was the crappy, crumbly sort.
Seems to have held on to the ice/snow a little better than the Glyders, though, so I reckon it's nearly there. The recent thaw won't hurt long-term and I reckon it'll be fine after a few cold nights.
Be good to hear what other people think over the next few days. We've been patient enough this year.
