Do you think bushwack crack in
gatebuttress is climbable this time of year?

If you can stand the cold I can't see why not. LCC isn't buried quite yet.

Sure, its climbable year round. Wet, dry, icey, snowy, cold, hot, its climbable.

Now, is it fun? Depends on you definition of "fun".

Last time I looked up that way, which was yesterday going to the Bird, I noticed a thin later or ice/snow/sleet/coldshit covering the majority of the schoolroom buttress. maybe a mixed ascent??

bongeater looks nice though. :)

About this time last year I went up there to do Bushwack a week or so after a snow storm and it had quite a bit of snow on it. Instead we headed up to the Green A and it was clean and suprisingly warm, if in the sun. Think I climbed in a T-shirt actually and did the second pitch MA-1. All those walls are in the sun almost all day. If you go around noon or 1:00, after the sun has been beating on it for awhile you should be able to find something.

As of today...Bushwack is packed with snow in the crack all the way up, jack.

I got your back.

Try the Coffin when it comes into the sun.
