We had a great day climbing the West Ridge of Mt Tupper yesterday in Rogers Pass.  The route is completely dry as is the approach, and climbing in T-shirts was the order of the day!
 
There is still snow on N aspects but with the minimal freeze and warm temperatures things are slowly drying off.  Still some snow on the upper parts of Sir Donald NE Ridge, Uto's S ridge would be dry.  Snowline on the glaciers appears to be around 2400m but is only a few cm's thick in most places.
 
A great time to be out in the alpine!
 
Cheers, Conrad Janzen
