Haven't been myself recently but should make it out there again sometime this year still and will submit an update.
Did speak to a friend of mine that did the Bell Traverse 2 weeks ago. He did not report anything out of the usual. It seems the gully is its usual eroded, exposed self but is not posing any major problems. Apparently there is a little ice in the gully but nothing serious.
The route has been used for cattle rustling for some time and I can only hope that Bugger Gully will stand up under the strain.
Water is of course in short supply on the Traverse currently. He did not encounter any fresh signs of the Basothos.
