Still snow at Mt. Washington?

Was anyone skiing this weekend? I went a little over a week ago, and it was in pretty good shape, but I'm wondering how much melted?
If you have pics... please post 'em?

Thanks!
:D
 
There is still snow, but the heat wave over the past 5-7 days has melted things out rapidly. I've looked at the webcams periodically today and have watched as the heat opens crevasses up in the bowl. Left Gully is gone and Chute is hanging in by a thread. Upper snowfields are toast.

A pic is attached

There is more snow than you think, I was in the great gulf on sunday the 12th. I nabbed 800 feet of vert but I had to down climb a couple times. Made it fairly close to the small pond down there. The summit snowfields are still there and good for a series of turns.
