People who have been up this month have been using them. I don't think the worst spots will be clear by that time. The worst places are the top of the switchbacks -- that one last long section that heads over to Trail Crest, and at the cables. Whe

I think once their name is part of a public report, it's fair game. The exception is a juvenile. However, their injuries shouldn't be reported as part of any official release without their permission (I think). It's a good question, though, about wh
