Comments
Had to boot pack 1/3 the way up, the snow line was about 1700 m. Wet and dense snow, all consolidated rounds. Saw some avalanche deposits at the base of a few outcrops, probably from the warming/rain. Little bit of a melt freeze crust developing on the surface at higher elevations. Temps were sitting above 0 the whole day. Watch out for streams!
