I climbed Abbot on Sun, 12 July, and BCS on the 15th. There were 3-5" of snow at 13.5K+ ft on Sun from the prior week's storm. It has since melted off, but the weather has been unusually wet/snowy this season. It's worth a re-check closer to your trip.

BCS N Arete top of pitch 5

It was fun, snow on ledges and a good 3 inches on nearly everything near the top.

My partner talked to some people descending who mentioned posting a photo of us to MP, so I figured I'd throw it out there.
