Pitch 4: fat,blue and plastic fairly dry Pitch 5: good ice and wet Pitch 6: i decided left side dry and mushrooms, bring long ice screws to protect!!! Some crusty ice sections Disclaimer!!! Make your own assessment before you go, getting warmer and ice conditions can change quickly, this was my experience today , no signs of avalanche debris Have fun and be safe !!
