Lower Bean Basin is melting out fast, but we found some great turns on Judy's Peak (aka Judi's Peak) via ESE ridge. Continuous (sorta) snow starts at c. 5100. One patch of dirt skinning. Fun turns off the top of Judy's and down the ridge. Forced right on our descent at est. 6100' per a large recent avy blowdown.
Still some good touring out of Bean Basin if you don't mind walking to 5200' or so. W flank of Early is cooked, but Judy's and Mary's should stay in shape for awhile. Bean Peak looked skiable from a couple hundred feet below the summit via the right line.
