Did HSCT from cypress to unnecessary, descending toward Harvey creek and walked out the logging roads to LB. Saw massive crowns 2-3m tall on the W facing couloir just south of the West Lion. Likely from the warming and rainfall event March 29/30. Huge cornices still looming in that area. Descent from Lions Blinkert trail in bad condition for a few hundred metres. Bunch of fallen trees and logs, possibly from the weather event Dec 15 that caused a landslide in LB. A post hole and tree mantling adventure until we could put our hikers on and walk out the last 900m of vert to Sunset TH.
