Beautiful conditions up here still. No snow- foliage is awesome. The only unexpected part of the hike came just before the summit, where there was a somewhat hairy bit of Class 3 (or more) exposed ridge scrambling. Not sure if this is a normal part of the route, or if the trail below was washed out, but these moves can certainly catch you off guard if you are expecting Class 2 hiking all the way to the summit.

I was just going to post up the same information from 9/20 as well. Instead, I'll just confirm what you said: no snow & class III

I put up a trip report with more explanation on the class III:
