Has anyone been on the gully routes or are they completely bare. is it worth the effort.

Thanks in advance

To quote a mate of mine who went up to have a look on friday and sent me a conditions report via text: "Not looking good. Turf is wet and snow is all slush. I'm turning back." 

I'd personally give it a miss, especially considering the sensitive plants around that area.

Have you checked the forecast today? It's been above freezing and raining at the summit, and the gully's start, what?, 300 mtrs lower? I doubt much if anything has survived. Tomorrow should be cold with more snow but a) very windy and b) I suspect it'll take at least day for the turf to freeze. The ridges might feel wintery again if you don't get blown off them! https://www.metoffice.gov.uk/public/weather/forecast/gcmjghxpx#?date=2019-0...
