Just yesterday, I heard something about a couple of 20-somethings dying up there this summer. Climbers folklore or truth I'm not sure.

Dragon's back has a couple of narrow points. The scree is an issue futher up toward the summit. On the way down, I was literally skiing through tons of scree with my adjustable ski pole, so consider taking one up.
