I'm planning a trip to the Winds late August/early September. I'd like to make an attempt up Bonney/Dinwoody Pass and even Dinwoody Peak. Most of the trip reports I read describe the pass on the way to Gannett and highlight the steepness and general use of crampons/micro-spikes and ice axes.
What are conditions like on this pass during peak summer conditions? Is there still snow in the pass requiring microspikes/ice axe, or is it a class 2+ hike/climb?
