Conditions

A few questions:
1) Mt Evans. How much snow should I expect in the meadow? Are Aprons, Black wall, Tan Buttress covered in ice or too wet?
2) Empire. Specifically Ra. I've never been there, would I need 4wd this weekend?
3) Lumpy: is it too hot in the sun if it's 81 in Estes?

Adding to this, anyone been up Mt.Royal? Is it dry enough yet?

Empire- 2 wheel drive will get you up the paved Highway 40 til the hike starts.

thanks for the info

Still some snow on the Tan Buttresses approach gully and above Rainbow Highway on Black Wall.
