I'm debating trying Middle Pal or Split Mtn this weekend.

For Split - I noticed the permit area is grayed-out on rec.gov for Red Lake. Does that mean I don't need a permit now, or is the trail closed or something?
Also - after such heavy snowfall this year, will I need crampons and an ice axe to summit?
