coralroot on Easy Pass trail
There are a few blowdowns over the trail in the avalanche chute down low all easy to step over. Flowers in the big open avy areas.
columbines on Easy Pass trail
There are patches of snow but nothing of any significance. Mosquitoes and a few flies at Easy Pass. The bugs could be a lot worse during mornings and evenings. The wildflowers are ripping especially on the national park side of the pass.

YB:
What is the creek crossing like? Is snowmelt a factor at this time of year?
There's a nice, solid bridge over Granite Creek near the trailhead.
There are a few small trees for a bridge over the creek just before the trail enters the first big open avalanche area. Creek crossings were not an issue.
