Forester Pass is one of the major passes in the Sierra Nevada. Besides its stunning views from the top, it is a special mile stone for hikers along the Pacific Crest Trail, since it is the (official) highest point of the trail that stretches from Mexico to Canada. The ascent and descent are likely to have snow fields. Best time to cross the pass is in the early morning, when the snow is still frozen, so your microspikes will have a good grip. The snow will be too slushy in the afternoon. If you like to take a break, there is a really nice lake just below Forester Pass.

"Forester Pass is a mountain pass in the Sierra Nevada. Forester Pass lies on the Kings Kern Divide and on the border between Sequoia National Park and Kings Canyon National Park and connects the outlets of Bubbs Creek and Kern River. " (Wikipedia, 2022)

The highest point of the PCT! The ascent to Mt. Whitney was easier than we thought - but we didn't have any snow either.
