Lamarck Col

Hi everyone,
I'm planning a solo trip 10/6-10/9 or so and considering going up and over Lamarck Col. Saw a note on the park service site that as of 8/17 there was enough snow on the east side to warrant an ice ax and crampons. Has anyone been up there in the last month? Is that still true? I don't mind bringing microspikes but would rather not take on something solo that requires more than that.
This trip is weather dependent of course. I won't be venturing forth if there's new snow in the forecast!
Thanks in advance,
Kiely
