Climbed Moonlight yesterday and found conditions to be a bit thin overall.  The first 60 feet of the route didn't take any screws but thickened up above that and became more friendly.  The ice was quite brittle up to the belay cave but was wet after that to the top.

Snowlion looked very thin for the entire first pitch and 2 Low 4 Zero was basically ice free.  Heavy trail breaking (80cms) to the base of the routes..took 2 hours.

Cheers
