We drove down the Duffy last Thursday (24 May) and at Cerise, it appeared to be pretty much snow essentially from the Duffy Lake Road.
Snow-line south of there was somewhere between 1250 and 1400 m.
I doubt there has been substantial melting since then. Personally, I would find walking tedious and would be inclined to ski. |

Sea to Sky corridor seems to be a very rough 1100-1300 from what I can tell. Decently high snow line at the moment, but still quite a bit up high.

Yesterday: the south end of a cut block off Chance Main at 900m near Cloudburst (~12 miles south of Whistler) looking towards Tricouni. Weak snow bridges and rotten snow for the next 70m - solid at about 1000m.
