Navajo approach mostly free of snow except for last 1/2 mile near the lake. Most camping spots are snow covered but there is some dry space to be found. North slope route has continuous snow top to bottom, ridge still has decent amount of snow as well, but is mostly avoidable up to El Diente. Sorry, no pics of the traverse to Wilson, we had to make a speedy descent due to lightning.

Thanks for the update and photos, planning to head down in a week or two. That photo from above your partner is great. Glad you got out okay given the weather.

Do you remember what the traverse looked like? Was there a lot of snow on it?
Thanks
Dan

There was still a fair amount of snow on the south side of the ridge, it would have made it a little tricky but we would have definitely went for it had it not been for the AM thunderstorm.
