Sierra Nevada snow conditions July 2020

Curious if a climber has gone up Treasure Col to summit Mt Gilbert recently? Are ice axe and crampons necessary in this below average snow year? Thanks, Scott

Just got back from the Yosemite area today. For what it's worth, there was little visible snow and this heat wave has been intense.
