I just got back from a climb of Forbidden Peak over the Forth of July weekend. Conditions are about as good as they could be right now, with the coulour still completely filled with snow, and the ridge mostly bare and dry. We dropped our campons a couple hundred feet above the top of the coulour and then continued in our boots from there to the summit.
