Overall impression
Snow condition
As you can see from Chris Berner's previous reports, the snow conditions are still very good. One star is deducted because a few stones and branches were sticking out at the bottom of the hiking trail.
Snow quality
On the south side, sometimes firn, sometimes with a crumbly top, sometimes heavy snow. The (longer) northern descent in settled powder was very nice.
Risks
Actually quite good. Watch out for drift snow and be especially careful on steep, sunlit slopes. Not everything is down yet.
Overall impression
An impressive tour in a great setting and still good snow, especially on the northern descent. As expected, we were not alone on the route, unfortunately we had to wait quite a long time above the Naad as there was a larger group inside and they took a relatively long time. The upper abseil point in the Naad is snowed in, but someone has laid a solid anchor. One 50m abseil was enough for us (it was too hard for us in the middle to slide down completely). The ridge is easy, even without crampons.
