normal North Glacier route and gained the ridge at about the 9500
foot level, several pitches below the crux, via a snow and scree
gully. Tues/Wed snows have coated many of the holds, especially on
the north side of things, with snow and verglas. I'd wait for dry
conditions and hot days before heading back there.
Happy trails
