Just came back from Lake Rodway, went in via Lake Hanson/Twisted Lakes and out via the back of Cradle/Kitchen Hut. The track's in good condition (as much as it ever is), there is one tree over the track just past lake Rodway - no drama. There are patches of snow up on the cirque but nothing much, we had no dramas. There is a lot more snow on the track between Marions Lookout and just past Kitchen Hut than anywhere on the Rodway to WFV track. Luckily what snow we did encounter wasn't as slushy as it often is and 90% of the time we walked on it, rather than through it. Of course the track is pretty wet and acting as a creek in plenty of places as usual, though it's as dry as I have seen! So if you like dry feet waterproof boots or a change of socks are a goer.
