Starting at Denny Creek TH; trail was dry aside from a few creek crossings until treeline, some with log bridges, other with rocks. Can keep your feet dry. Once above treeline, the trail crosses a few snowy patches, easy to cross without spikes; maybe a pole required; has foot step stairs up the snowfields.. Saddle is dry, and the ridge has avoidable to no snow depending on the route. Summit has some snow, but also has plenty of dry area. On the way down at about 10:15 to 11:00 in between the saddle and treeline, the snow starts to get slick, and the trail is muddy. Boots not required, just have some traction for the ridge.
