Wondering if anyone has been up there last few days to observe snow conditions. Looking at doing Dragon's Tail in particular.

I was up there Thursday. Snow all the way down to the lake shore. Plenty of evidence of recent wet slides all over the place, especially on the approach to Dragon's Tail.

This past weekend it was the same as Kevin said. One recent slide path went all the way to Emerald Lake. Watched a small slide come down one of those couloirs on Saturday ~7:30pm, natural trigger.

We were not on that side, but we saw a number of slides off Notchtop on Saturday while we were eating lunch at Lake Helene.
