In early June last year there was 5+ feet of snow at 9k feet.

To climb is to push yourself in a way you might not normally imagine is possible. If your stamina, skill, and luck are sound you will get to stand on top. ... I realized that with climbing, I'd found something that nourished my soul and could forge me into a better version myself - Jim Davidson

TGR - a bit of a lean towards sliding on snow... but it's the spot for Teton discussions.

Teton Range in Grand Teton National Park has had one of the deepest snowpacks recorded in the last 18 years.

Re: Grand Tetons Forums or Boards?????
I would definitely plan on having some form of flotation and having to do some route-finding, even in late June. The Tetons melt out later in the year than most of Colorado, and as others have said, they have a deep snowpack this year (although not quite as deep as 2008 or 2011). I have a few friends who live up there, so when it's closer to the time you head up, I could get some more in-depth beta from them.
Re: Grand Tetons Forums or Boards?????
in late July 2011, there was 5-10 ft of snow at 9000 ft up there, covering several backcountry sites. That winter saw over 700 inches of snow at 9000 ft.
