Conditions from the tram to summit

Anyone have any beta? Any snow? I tried calling the long valley station but the line is always busy.

If they answered the phone, they would say you need a down suit, plastic boots and an avalanche transceiver. I find they over exaggerate the conditions to protect themselves.

I don't have beta on the conditions, but you might be able to see something with that new web cam at the upper tram station. I would guess the snow level was 8000' feet or higher.
