Trail is in good condition up through Echo Overlook. From the overlook up through the saddle there were intermittent snow fields and a few trees and branches to work around. Many of the snow sections are easy enough to cross, but some were pretty slippery and dangerous. Snow/micro spikes a must through some sections. Recommend going earlier in the morning before the snow gets too soft in the warmer temps of the afternoon. From the saddle up to the peak there is clear ground to walk next to the snow all the way up.
Chatted with lots of lovely folks on the way up and back down. So glad the trail is open again!
