Humboldt Conditions?

I would appreciate any condition beta, since the last recorded conditions I could find were from 9/29.

On 2 October, went up East Ridge and down the West. Both ridges completely dry. No snow on summit either.

It should be dry and I honestly don't think you'll have issues on either route even if there is a tiny bit of ice up there. If you wanna play it on the safe side you could always ascend via the E Ridge (slopes) which is the winter route.

Ascended the W ridge and Descended the E Ridge on 9/29.
