I forgot to comment on the climbing routes in my recent posting with photos of the descent.  The Kain route and Gmoser route look dry and good to go.  Homage to the Spider looks wet and drippy with significant snow on the big ledge at the end of the technical difficulties.  If the weather forecast is correct, a week or more  of high pressure should hopefully bring that route into shape.
