My buddy and I are doing the MR on Tuesday the 26th. Any recent photos of the final 400 would be much appreciated. Side note: We are going to descend the Whitney trail tagging Mt. Muir along the way so we are not planning on bringing any gear, other than ice ax's and crampons. Side-side note: we are both experienced and comfortable with solo climbing steep snow/class 3, however I may decide to bring the appropriate gear (or just stick to the Whitney trail) if solid ice conditions are present. It looks like the temps may be warm enough to prevent that, but any recent photos and other reports would be super helpful.
Thanks!
Tom
