Still clear from the trailhead all the way to the tippy top. I camped out overnight, and the low barely hit freezing. Conditions today were excellent with clear skies all morning, and I didn't notice any ice in the shaded part of the ridgeline. Careful if you are heading up to catch the sunrise; there are several spots were it's easy to lose the trail in the dark if your attention lapses, especially without a full moon to help out. Where you have a choice between stepping over a downed tree to your left or climbing a rock to your right, the rock is the correct path.
