I guided an ascent of Rogan's Gully today, Nov 29th. The first pitch is good,
then it get narrow and boney for a bit. Hardest pitches are in the Narrows due
to thin ice top outs. The top out of the right hand variation on the last pitch
is very thin too, I'd climb the left hand variation if I was there again
tomorrow, but I'm not planning on being there tomorrow.
Happy trails,
