Hello
Was up the route a few days ago and found generally good conditions. There is a small cornice on the climbers left side but it is easy to avoid the hazard by picking a line up the right side of the ice. There are caves and protected stances for belays. All of the large daggers that form around the last pitch have snapped off and there is currently an easy ramp that trends out right to finish the last pitch.
My Daddy's a Psycho (WI5+) is in and looks quite good with lots of ice.
Happy New Year!
