It's 80% dry from Trail Crest to last 400ft. Maybe 3-4 very short "sketchy" sections with decent boot tracks. Late morning and early afternoon wasn't really icy, so I didn't bother to use crampoons.
Last 400ft would be pretty dangerous without crampoons. Hard and icy snow.
I saw 4 PCT hikers who ascended from the West Side. They said it's ok, some icy sections, but nothing really bad.
The worst part was from Trail Camp to Trail Crest. First, post holing to the bottom of the chute, then very hard snow, so no step kicking. Later, it gets a bit better, but it's a mix of everything including knees deep snow just before Trail Crest.
