Anyone in that area that can take a look or have visual in regards to conditions? Is there much snow in the Crestone Peak area? Would the climb be doable next weekend?

Thanks folks,
-Jon

Ellingwood Ledges.

Looking down on the ledges. Humboldt in the background.
Was up there the weekend of the 18th and the entire route was dry. The climb is def. doable. Lots of snow patches on the way back down from broken hand pass but towards the end of the day it was pretty easy to kick steps in the soft snow.
