On the 17th we completed an Olympics ski traverse that exited via Royal Basin. (see www.Turns-all-year.com for that trip report)
There is about 3' to 4' of snow at Royal Lake and that continues on down to about 4400'. From there the trail is patchy (one area near the river was solid snow and a real pain to stomp through) to about 3500'. Below 3500' the trail is snow free to the trail head. You can also easily drive to the Dungeness trail head. All the snow on the road is gone now.
