I've been stalking social media groups and checking photos on peak conditions for everything around the Missouri Basin area to see if there are any pics showing what the snow looks like down towards the treeline and Pine Creek.
If anyone has Intel, I'd be thankful.
Right now it feels like the flip of a coin on whether or not I pack in up Pine Creek for a few days of solitude and nontrad routes next week
Missouri Basin?

Re: Missouri Basin?
Not sure if you've scoped the Sentinel pics recently, but it looks like things are melting out pretty quick, and there doesn't appear to be tons of snow near tree line in Pine Creek (though there are clouds in the way in all recent pics):
This is from 6/4: And this is from 6/9:
