Thanks for the reply and the information, Kent. You should congratulate yourself, since there are so many people who are quite hesitant to head up that way, or go up and get hopelessly off route. You did very well.
I am particularly curious about this point just above LBSL:
Is it obvious now to cross over to the slabs through the bushes. This picture is from several years ago, and the place to cross through the bushes was pretty grown together.
