My partner and another pair from olympia were up on the NF on 6/1. The snow was good early in the am, but softens up by noon. Better be off the white salmon by 1000. Lots of snow which makes approach easy. The face was mostly snow with only a little ice at crest of the shoulder.
Any beta on snow conditions as for as access to the route,? I'm coming up from OR. Wasn't planning on carrying skis over, so don't want to drive up for long wet slog to the face.
