Things are in prime shape right now, the rock ridges have mostly dried off and the south face snow route on Rogers is kick-stepping snow. The schrunds on that route are there and large but easily bypassed. There was still a little bit of snow on the descent to the Swiss-Truda col and that slowed things down a bit but it's workable.
There was a large rockfall down the south face snow slopes of Rogers, initiating on the looker's right side of the upper couloir, probably about 1 pm on Aug 18 (we heard a rumble but couldn't see it through the fog but there were three deep-freeze sized blocks at the bottom of the slope the next day that had obviously come off in the previous 24 hours). Also a couple of large blocks tumbled down the Swiss-Truda couloir when we were traversing above it on the 19th. Not surprising that these rockfalls occurred with the recent snowfalls melting away.
