Depends how far you're willing to hike. Was burning out pretty hard a month ago when they closed.

You'd be walking while till you found snow. You'd almost be better off going up by cooper spur and go for the north side glaciers.

It's warm still. It's not snowed up there yet

Pretty much every mountain in Oregon has completely melted out, serious heatwaves all summer and a relatively dry winter was a recipe for disaster
