Early last week I went backpacking to Young Lakes, then went cross-country to Roosevelt, over "Don't Be a Smart Pass" to Upper McCabe, then to Lower McCabe where I picked up the trail and hiked to Glen Aulin, then back to Tuolumne Meadows.
The sky conditions weren't the best for photography, too much incoming moisture, periodic smoke (the smoke was very bad Monday), but I did get some nice pictures anyway.
There's still snow patches near the top of the south side of the pass, the north side of the pass is almost all snow except for a small patch near the bottom.
The mosquitoes are dreadful.
The wildflowers are still out and doing quite well.
The footbridge at Glen Aulin over Conness Creek is sort-of intact, but about 40 feet downstream from the foundations (pics below).

The footbridge over Conness Creek to Glen Aulin campground and High Sierra Camp is destroyed. Here's a picture of the footings, you can see how high the water had to rise in order to impact the bridge:
Here's the bridge itself, taken from the top of the western pier:
