A Facebook group: Sierra Nevada something something. I used to be a member, but found that for every good condition report, you had to read a bunch of mindless drivel.

Thanks, I should have guessed. I'm in that group too. Rarely find anything useful in it.

I didn't go above Saddlerock Lake, but it was clear to Long Lake, with three smallish sections (10-50 feet) of snow to Saddlerock. Looking towards the pass, there was definitely more continuous snow fields past that point. (Trip was June 2-5).

Glen Pass, north side, afternoon of June 4th. Very little of actual trail exposed. Mostly crossing through snow and scrambling over the rocks. Friends did bishop, Pinchot, and Mather passes as well. They were doable but better to do early in the morning to avoid post-holing. Definitely recommend carrying micro spikes.
