Looking to do the North Buttress on Mt. Sneffels soon. Anyone been in the Blaine Basin in recent days? Any snow left on the approach to the buttress?

As of now at least half of the snowfield is there. Most likely firm snow. Make sure you get your fishing license or hiker's card at Ouray Mtn Sports. It could be the cheapest helicopter ride of your life! Have fun -

s.price - did you get a look up the lower portion of the Snake Couloir? Is it continuous snow?

How about the upper portion? Anyone seen it.
