Climbed Green Gully today which is located on the west boundary of Yoho Park, above the Trans Canada Highway.  Park at a pullout (road) , just west of the Yoho Park sign.  Walk up the right edge of a clearcut, onto the boundary cut line and follow it (sort of) to the route.  Its in a deep gully in a rockband - scope from the Beaverfoot road.

Lots of short steps that were wet and thin but easily climbable.  One pitch that was about grade 3 maybe, but otherwise lots of easy grade 2/3 steps with hiking between.  Probably climbed about 10 steps like this.

10 cm fresh low density snow in the area and a total of about 20 cm in the forest leading up to the route.
