Just went up the MR route, down Main trail 6/17. Did it in running shoes. Started at 6am at the top at 12:30. I mention the time because it was spitting hail at the top, then on the way down a bit of rain and later when I was in the trees I could hear thunder. No crampons necessary, but I had a disposable poncho that I did not use, but was a comfort to have (like a puffy and stocking hat). The chute sucked, like always, very little snow in the final 400.
