Safely climbed Capitol on Saturday. Summer conditions all the way to the Daly saddle. There's a lot of snow on the back which was nice to cross with an ice ax. (see the photos) I'd recommend carrying the extra weight of the ice ax to have peace of mind crossing those snow fields. There's a small snow field on the right side of K2 which is the suggested easiest route. We didn't mess with that snow field and instead climbed higher up K2. There are some good cairns that should get you to the summit.
