Just wondering if the Ben's classic ridges are in summer condition yet - can cope with a snowy approach but wouldn't fancy too much on the climb.

Thanks

Done NE Buttress on Sunday, still some snow left after the 40ft corner but mostly avoidable and didn't need crampons/axe. Approach was completely clear of snow. Heard from another team that Tower Ridge was fine aswell until the last 10m which was thick water ice. Castle ridge looked snow free aswell but only walked past it.
