Has anyone done the trail to Waterwheel Falls/Glen Aulin this season. Is it passable? Or is there too much snow?

Hi there...We had permits to go in at Glen Aulin to WWF and out at White Wolf starting July 4th. I called the Ranger Station a week before and he the place was still covered in snow, stream crossings were raging and dangerous, and bridges were underwater. He said we would be CRAZY to attempt it. Don't know what the current conditions are. Would love to do that hike this year still. Let me know if you find anything out.

Everything is still flowing very high, but the snow is significantly less than it was last week.
Also, trailheads out of Yosemite are looking a lot better than anything is off Hwy 108 into the Emigrant right now.
