Due to recent snow storms there was snow all the way down to the manker flats parking area. In the early morning hard black ice was on the service road so traction devices were needed early on. Higher up snow was deep off of any foot paths. Waist leve. Near the summit were several areas of hard exposed ice do able with microspikes if you’re careful but I would recommend crampons. The snow starts melting quickly making the decent in slushy conditions difficult so I recommend submitting early to descend while the snow is firm
