Nice!

How much of the route had snow on it when you did it? Love this picture

Re: Nice!

Thanks! Quite a bit of patchy snow on the approach. Once in the main gully, I think we had continuous snow from about 10k on up. Here's our trip report with more details.

Does June offer skiing in the white clouds?

Or is it too late?

Re: Does June offer skiing in the white clouds?

It varies year to year, but I'd say most years the south face gully will be full of snow well into June.
