Anyone know what Dragon's Tail may be like this weekend? I'm worried I picked a bad Saturday (tomorrow) for it considering the recent snowfall. If that's out, anyone have an idea if the standard route up Flattop or Hallett would be reasonably safe?

Thanks!

Woodie

Otherwise I might snowshoe up Breck as a consolation.

I'm no longer considering Dragon's Tail. If the standard (non couloir) routes up Fattop and Hallett are also out I'll head to Breck.

Thanks.
