Anyone familiar with that area, is it filled with snow typically in the beginning of Jan? I'm making a trip down there, planning on cimbing in the Owens gorge mostly, but I really liked that wall last time I was there back in May. Figured it might be a bit snowy, but just wondering.

Thanks!

Yeah, you'll probably be postholing up to the base. The sun doesn't come anywhere near that wall in the winter.

Edit: Here's someones Trip Report for Pratt's Crack from a few years ago to give you an idea.
