Climbed Raina Peak's North Couloir last weekend, and saw some alpine ice on the west face of Point 6330 if anybody's interested (roughly across from where Mongolian BBQ would be). Looked like one mostly dry route to some thin ice at the top (a few pitches), two several-pitch routes of thin ice the whole way, and one shorter route of thicker ice sandwiched between snow gullies, probably a pitch or two. There is a lot of snow in the other gullies on the face, which may be hiding more ice, or may simmer down into some ice soon.
