It depends on your comfort with exposure, really. The crux would go just fine with a 30-40m rope, and the rest is 3rd to low 5th. If you're doing the full ridge, a 60m rope might be nice for the fixed line traverse, as the line is questionable, and you have to climb a ways above the fixed line in sugar snow before reaching a good spot to belay the second.
