Guys - appreciate the replies. I'll likely take my chances without them.

The last couple of NPS climbing conditions reports have suggested taking skis or snowshoes up the Emmons route. I climbed Emmons last year in June, and the snow was very well consolidated up the InterGlacier/Emmons. I do realize how different the snowfall amounts have been this year. Does anyone know about the snow conditions? I'm heading up next week, and would like to know if snowshoes are really needed. TIA.
