Yes it is. Unfortunately the day we went up a lightning storm began after the last clip so we had to run down the mountain and wasn’t able to summit. As far as the snow clearing, I’d say by the end of July.
I did this over 25 years ago in early August and there was still snow on the slope covering the trail to the peak. I didn't bring any crampons or steep snow climbing gear, just boots and my hands
So the steep section is all after the lake to Hyalite peak? When does the snow typically clear?

The snow can fall anytime of the year in the high regions

It also snowed about 100 feet above the base of the lake overnight
