Great weather for a summit. Got an alpine start ~ 3am and reached the peak around 7:30 / 8. That being said, the way down was pretty brutal. Sliding across mashed potatoes the whole way. There were quite a few crevasses opened up as well, I imagine that will only increase with the hot weather. To be 100% clear, this is not a non technical hike. You need crampons, ropes, climbing harness / helmet, and glacier travel skills (crevasse rescue, self arrest, etc).
