My last ascent of Agassiz was mostly on skis on January 25, 1998. My last trip over Bishop Pass was August 11, 2009. I was doing North Palisade, Starlight, and Thunderbolt as a day trip. (Sorry, I just had to throw that in.)
Snow avalanches may be a concern right now, especially in the afternoon. By the time Gary gets there, the danger of snow avalanches should be gone. A big rockslide buried parts of the trail a few years ago. There are signs warning hikers not to dawdle in the area of the rockslide. I wouldn't stop to take a leak or eat lunch in that area, but I don't think it's a big deal.
