Was able to drive to the lower lake but not quite the upper lake. Put crampons on at the dam and then took them off after 5 minutes because there is a dry patch right before the true couloir. Had a solid overnight freeze and the snow was nice and firm. Summitted at 10 and was hoping to wait a little bit for the snow to soften up but then weather came in. The descent was on crusty snow. I had to ski down with one pole because I apparently lost the other one on the way up so if anyone finds a black diamond trekking/ski pole you should let me know please!
