Silver Star via Burgundy Col. Snow in the valley by Early Winters Creek. Stream crossing manageable, multiple logs can take you across. Finding climbers trail was difficult initially with snow cover. Intermittent snow coverage approaching the col. Went straight up the gulley to the col which is the wrong move, trending left of the col and cutting over is preferred.
Col is incredibly windy. Steep 200ft descent and then rising traverse towards glacier. No crevasses open on route. Class 4 chimney move at the summit is not bad.
While glacier was in good shape, snow conditions were post hole city
