Afternoon all. Just wondering if anyone knows what the conditions are like on the Ledge Route on the North Face of the Ben? Heading up it tomorrow (hopefully), and trying to assess whether the top is safe for summer gear (no crampons or Axe needed).

Route is dry. Likely till snow in no5 on approach. 

Still some snow in No.5 at the start of Ledge Route according to the CIC webcam, but it'll surely be soft

I took a picture of the north face generally, taken from the Carn Mor Dearg ridge on Friday and it is posted on the Grounds Conditions in UK Mountain Areas Facebook group, if that is any help.  It isn't the perfect answer, but might be useful.
