The first two miles up to a nice flat area for a break was dry. The final mile to the saddle had some 2-3 ft deep frozen snow drifts on the trail. These could be either walked on top of without post-holing or on dry ground along the edge of the trail (but still within the trail boundaries). No microspikes or snowshoes needed.
